This seems similar to a practice question we did on file permissions, but I can't recall the exact commands for changing the group ownership of new files.

I think I remember how to create a directory with the right permissions, but I'm not entirely sure about setting the group ownership correctly.

This looks manageable. I'll create the directory, set the admin group, and restrict access for other users.

Wait, I'm a bit unsure about the group permissions. I'll need to double-check the requirements to make sure I have it right.
