If you set a directory to permissions 2775, folders you create from within
that directory will also be 2775. The "2" is the setgid bit which makes
netatalk inherit the permissions from the parent folder for all files and
folders. Therefore, to make files within a folder get permissions 660,
you have to make the folder 2660, BUT netatalk needs to have that execute
bit turned on (fixed in 1.5). So you have to make the folder have 2770
permission. The execute bit doesn't do anything for netatalk files
anyway, since execute information is in .AppleDouble anyway.
