I'd like to know if a sgid bit on a directory represents a security risk, given the fact that the directory is not world or group writable. On my system, whereas the manual states that this bit is ignored on directories, a file created on such a directory is owned by the same group that posses the dir, and any child directory has the same sgid bit, by default. It this feature commonly used anyway? Marc.
