> If there's a better way should be judged on what exactly that app expects. For the web interface, maybe the http server - or whatever makes the web interface accessible to the users - can limit permissions. For the rest of the use cases it would be interesting which circumstances would need to be fulfilled for a user to be able to change permissions on a file they own. And if they could even change the permissions through sftp, webdav or rsync. Because if not, the simplest fix would be a cron job that peridoically sets the permissions on the directory, so you don't need a dedicated mount. But Maybe you want to create a separate topic where you describe exatcly what the basic requirements are and ask for suggestions what the best solution may be. Maybe something like AppArmor rules or other methods that aren't known by your typical user could be a better solution.

Rights are not the challenge here. It's to be able to share a
directory across multiple users.
For instance you would have : /users/bob/accounting shared with Alice
and accessible in her home directory /users/alice/accounting

I haven't already. I want to test the using private mounts first.

Thanks again for your input.
