Hi all,

Is there a way for me to change the permissions of a directory, that I
created using the File Object. ?

I'm creating a dir, under a "parent" dir which has "777". How can I make the
new dir to have the same permissions as the parent dir ?.

Is there any APIs in Java that I can use to do this ?

I'm using Linux RH6.2
JDK1.3

Thanks for your help
