Re: Directory permissions

I meant execute not write for the group. Sent without thinking !

SUID looks the same when there is no execute bit set; but the
permissions are 4000+

An S is a SGID bit when there is no write for group. Sort of means it
is there; but does not mean anything.

Permissions are 2700 for that...

I'm in the middle of a problem that required I delete a directory. I
need to recreate this directory. It needs the permissions set as:
drwx--S---

I know this is remedial, but how do you set the 'S'

Your help is much appreciated,
