[QUOTE="Kokopelli, post: 114980"] By the way, the behavior is correct from a Unix standpoint. Any new directory created will by default inherit the parent directories access settings. In the case of home folders that is dwrxr-x-r-x with the owner and group being the user whose home folder it is. If custom permissions are required they should be configured by hand either from the GUI or command line. [/QUOTE]
