Re: access to files at the filesystem

Since you are using SuSE I would try to implement NSS (Novell Storage 
Services) on this server.  NSS provides enhanced filesystem ACL's for Linux.  
NSS allows for Novell file access rights to run on a Linux server using the 
standard Linux file system.  NSS sits on top of ReiserFS or ext3.  With NSS 
you should be able to accomplish your third point.   I hope this helps a 
little.
