I have a box I am setting up for my office, it is basically a file server and 
I am using FC3 for now.  What I would like to do is delegate some people the 
ability to add users and give those users permissions to a set of subfolders 
in a folder.  While giving another person similar permissions to add users and 
allocate permissions to only another set of folders.

So I am not that good with Linux permissions, can I create a group such that 
the admin of that group can add a user and said admin will only be able to 
assign said user to that group?  And then modify permissions based upon the 
restrictions of that group?

For example, say group the group "Golf" can have any combination of 
permissions to any folder inside the Golf folder, but nothing outside of it?

I ask because I would like to teach the person who has decision over their 
directory to administer it, but do not have complete faith that they will lock 
down the users correctly, so I would like to restrict what they can do without 
my intervention, but do not want to deal with every user addition/subtraction 
or permission change..

BTW users of one set of folders will, as far as I know, never use another set.
