| Hi all. Not really sure on best method to do the following. I want to have
a place where any local users can add files to, and all local users could
read them.
I was considering /usr/share/local/mp3, /usr/share/local/camera, etc. with
a sticky bit. Unsure of what I should do for perms, groups, etc. I'm fine
w/ the commands, just don't know really what I should do, or if this would
be a bad idea and I should do something else.

Its very much upto you. At work, when I set servers, I usually have two
hard drives. I install linux on first drive and mount second drive on
/export and place all the data that can grow there. If I have to install
programs and stuff, I do it in /opt.

I came upon the same question last week when I went to share all my
music/vids/pics etc...
Being a linux newbie myself I dont know if I did it the right way but..
I created a Shared folder in /home and set root as the owner (could have
been me, so I could administer it) and the group as "users" and gave the
group full access, others read/exec and then created a link in each
users ~/ folder.
