[James Brigman]

Boys, boys! Please..."permishions"??? privilages??? 

You guys are killin' me here with this talk of "permishions" (surely
that was an INTENTIONAL misspelling, right? ;-)... looky here:

[bill at thffffpt ~]# ls -al | grep test
drwxr-xr-x   2 root apache   4096 Mar 25 11:26 test

[bill at thffffpt ~]# chmod 2775 test

[bill at thffffpt ~]# ls -al | grep test
drwxrwsr-x   2 root apache   4096 Mar 25 11:26 test

[bill at thffffpt ~]# cd test
[bill at thffffpt test]# touch blahblah

[bill at thffffpt test]# ls -al
total 20
drwxrwsr-x   2 root apache 4096 Mar 25 11:27 .
drwxr-x---  37 root root   4096 Mar 25 11:26 ..
-rw-r--r--   1 root apache    0 Mar 25 11:27 blahblah
