Hello, I'm with a 10.5.8 system that is shared by several users. I'm trying to create a folder 'testshare' that all users can read & write to. Any file created in there should be writable by any other user.
Following several guides, I've made the folder rw for the 'staff' group that all users are apparently automatically part of. However, any files created in here have only read access for the staff group. I've already set 'umask 0002' in the terminal, but there seems to be no effect.
Any advise appreciated. I'm from a Windows background, incidentally.

Shared: In addition to a Public folder for each user, OS X creates one Shared folder on every Mac for all users of this Mac. The Shared folder isn’t available to guests, but it’s available to all users who have an account on this machine. You find the Shared folder within the Users folder (the same folder where you find folders for each user).
