For example the directory /gdata/bibliography/Work/GroupBib/trunk/ can 
be written in by user phaley but not by other users who are member of 
the group mseasweb.  The directory has permissions

[root at mseas ~]# ls -lh /gdata/bibliography/Work/GroupBib
total 12K
drwxrwsr-x 4 phaley mseasweb 4.0K Aug 30 12:31 trunk

The parent directory (/gdata/bibliography/Work/GroupBib) has permissions

[root at mseas ~]# ls -lh /gdata/bibliography/Work/
total 8.0K
drwxrwsr-x 6 phaley mseasweb 4.0K Aug 30 14:01 GroupBib
