UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers

I currently have one user (USER1) that's a member of group 'A'.

I want to create a bunch of users and have them all have access to READ all of USER1's files. Should I create all of the new users and have them all be members of a new group (group 'B')?? It looks like when USER1 creates a file it has -rw-rw-r-- permissions by default.

Is this normal? If so, I'm assuming that all the new users should be members of GROUP 'B'. Then they can READ anything created by USER1. Does this sound correct?

Thank you!

Yes this is right, since whenever user1 creates a file the WORLD permissions are read only (r--) anyone has access to read USER1's files regardless of the group. (For example, members of group Z can read USER1's files. )
