Permissions



Hello

 My ls -l listing shows lines like this
drwx--S---    5 sunil    sunil        4096 Dec 13 09:21 Desktop/
drwxr-sr-x    5 sunil    sunil        4096 Aug 24 07:28 GNUstep/
 I know s bit is suid on files and x permission on directory allows you
to traverse it . But what does s and S  mean on directories also what 
is the difference between S and s
