9.2 on Red Hat 6

I would like users other than postgres to be able to 'see' the postgres owned files and directories that are under ....../psql/data

However definitely a Linux group and giving group access:

750 to them gives me

FATAL: data directory "........../pgsql/data" has group or world access

DETAIL: Permissions should be u=rwx (0700).

Is there any way around this?
