I managed to delete the /var/mailman/archives/public folder on my server (D'oh). I am recreating the folder bu the permissions are

I tried a google and a man page but I can't seem to find the proper syntax.

All nicely documented in /Essential Systems Administration/ from OR&A

You want the directory setgid bit, which is mask 2000, looks like you want 2771
