Every time I create a new file or folder in Linux, it is accessible for r/w by myself, not the group. I want to change my system setting such that every new file or folder will be automatically accessible by the group. Is there anyway?

From the article:
chmod g+s <directory> //set gid setfacl -d -m g::rwx /<directory> //set group to rwx default setfacl -d -m o::rx /<directory> //set other Next we can verify:
getfacl /<directory> Output:
file: ../<directory>/ owner: <user> group: media flags: -s- user::rwx group::rwx other::r-x default:user::rwx default:group::rwx default:other::r-x 1This can be done using the umask utility. What is Umask and How To Setup Default umask Under Linux?
You can setup a script that starts automatically on boot which executes the command
umask 777 to give everyone read/write and execute permission, for example.
