Joel:
Thanks for the reply. Yes, I did try the gid and uid options as well (sorry
I didn't mention that) but to no avail. Even when specifying the gid of my
desired group (users), it still made the directory ownership root.root. I
did not however try them together (gid and uid at the same time). Maybe I
should try that too.
