[X4U] Ownership and permissions Settings

[revDAVE]

Using 10.3.9 -  I have a small network of a few Macs (with some external
FireWire drives attached) and PC's.

Question: what the best ownership and permission settings for the Internal
and  FireWire drives?

 you can = read and write
  owner = xxx?
 access = xxx?

  group = xxx?
 access = xxx?

  others = xxx?


Also: as I understand it, it is a bad idea generally to check = "  ignore
ownership on this volume" ... True? Knowing this, several months back I made
sure that none of my hard drives add this option checked ... However, I just
look again and some of them were checked ... And no one but me uses my
computer's. I regularly repair disk permissions and occasionally run  disk
warrior ... So - what could have switched this? I rarely used cocktail or
tinkertool ...  Could they have done something?
