Thanks to Larry Clegg and Pete Lindsey.
the answer to my question, which follows below, is that ACL's are
the way to go. If I remember correctly, this usually involves
a kernel rebuild to enable them.

Subject: Default permissions in a directory or volume
There is a partition on one of my systems running Tru64 4.0g.
In this partition, the users would like all files created to
have group write permission by default, no matter which
user makes them.
I am aware of umask but there is no way I can find to
restrict its effect to only one directory. Is there any other
method available to set the default permissions?
The partition is an AdvFS partition, if that makes any difference.
Thanks
Steve
