The only difference I had to the above commands was:

        sudo find /path/to/repo -type d -exec chmod 770 {} \;

I don't know what the "2" does in front of the 770. But it looks like it still works... so maybe thats all there is to it?

If I removed the global permissions then I would not be able to access the repo via the https interface anymore. The exact error message escapes me though, it was a few weeks ago.

So anyway I followed the above commands and it seems to be working from the local network... the big test will be tomorrow when I try and get to my repo from work.
