[LBo] Can a user give access to files to a set of users?

[Anita Lewis]

I think the answer is "no" but I'm curious is someone has any ideas?
Pretend you do not have root privilege.  Can this be done?

"So the only way to give more than one user (and not everyone) access to
something is to first create a group with the list of users you want to
access the file (as root only), and then set the file's group to that
new group.  Is there really no way for a regular user to define their
own list of users who can access something?"
