Hi,
You need to jump into ACLs. You'll do something like:

If you don't want to deal with ACLs and your requirements aren't too specific
you could set the SGID, bit (Set Group ID) so that every file created under the
directory will be owned by the group owner of that directory:
chown myGroup /var/appdata
chmod g+s /var/adppdata
HTH,
Jorge
