Might I suggest something else then? Gateway directories. Instead of doing this by filename, make directories in your naming scheme and lock down _their_ permissions. For example: mkdir just_group1 chgrp group1 just_group1 chmod 770 just_group1 Now, provided a user's working directory is _outside_ just_group1, only users in group1 can get at the files inside, regardless of the state of the file permissions.
