    hi..

    i have a file in a dir...

    the file was created as root.

    the permissions/owner/group have been modified to user 'foo' by root..
    chown foo dog.txt
    chgrp foo dog.txt
    chmod 777 dog.txt

    however, when user 'your_foo' tries to delete/cp the file, the sys gives a
    permission error.

    user 'your_foo' is a secondary member of the 'foo' group.

    basically, i'm trying to figure out a way to allow members/users of two
    different groups to be able to delete/modify files in a given dir tree...

    thanks

    -bruce
