I have pure-ftpd running as a daemon with the following entry in the pure-ftpd.conf file:
Umask 113:002
However when I create a file it has these permissions:
-rw-r--r-- 1 chapan users 306 Apr 30 09:04 x.txt
I am running opensuse 12.2.
Isee a special warning in that config file:
# File creation mask. <umask for files>:<umask for dirs> .
# 177:077 if you feel paranoid.
# Note: on SUSE systems umask is overrided by pam_umask inherited from
# /etc/pam.d/common-session. In case the system-wide default does not
# fit you, you can either
#
# 1.) add line 'session optional pam_umask.so umask=$value' into
# /etc/pam.d/pure-ftpd, so all changes in common-session will apply
# for pure-ftpd as well, but config file will be still ignored
#
# 2.) replace the line 'session include common-session' in
# /etc/pam.d/pure-ftpd by the content of /etc/pam.d/common-session,
# remove the line 'session optional pam_umask.so' and uncomment the
# line below
#Umask 177:077
Is that something you took into consideration?
That was it, thanks.
