But the file writing to the disk does rdesktop binary, right? So it *could* create
file with other permissions.

I don't actually care about executable, I need group write permission.

No, it will not work, i use fsniper (A tool that monitors directories for new files
and invokes scripts on them) on Linux, which modifies the file right after it is created.
But I want to run fsniper as another user, not root or logged in user. So I need
group write permission.
