Dear list, After doing a full one day googling I am fade up and need some kind help from this list. I have clerkconnect server ( enterprise edition 4.2 ) The "httpd -v" shows ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~` Server version: Apache/2.0.52 Server built: Oct 9 2005 17:44:32 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ the web server creates files with the permission rw_r__r__ so group only have the read permission. I like to alter the umask of the apache server so that it will be 0002, hence group can write too. there is an umask setting at /etc/init.d/function like umask 002. I have modified it as "umask 002" and restarted the server. but still the apache server crteates files with permission rw_r__r__ So how can I modify the umask of apache2 in clarkconnect server ? kindly help me thanks. -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Joydeep Bakshi, Linux System Admin Kolkatainfoservices Pvt Ltd, 23A Royd Street, Kolkata 700016, India Work Phone 91 033 40014784 http://infoservices.in/ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
