[Mono-list] Changing owner, group and permissions

Hi,

I have a mono program (runs as root) which (as a part of its functionality)
goes and creates a directory. This directory should have a non-root owner, a
non-root group and I would like to specify what permissions are on the
directory.

>From my understanding of the documentation, there are two ways of doing
this. The first through the use of the
System.IO.Directory.Create(DirectorySecurity) method and the second through
the use of the Mono.Unix.UnixDirectoryInfo.Create(FileAccessPermissions).

Is it possible to do this with either of these methods? If so, which method
is preferable? What are the advantages/disadvantages of each approach? i.e.
what is the 'best practice' way of doing this.

Thank you
