What distro are you using?

I've got a user/group called mythtv.  I've added my doug profile to the 
mythtv group.

On my data directories I set the sticky bit for group permissions on the 
directories:

chmod g+s datadir -R

When I create anything within those directories, the group permissions 
will be mythtv

[doug at desktop Movies]$ mkdir temp

[doug at desktop Movies]$ ls -l

drwxr-sr-x  2 doug  mythtv    6 2011-02-05 10:34 temp/
