I'm using Debian Sarge.
At present, while using Gnome, applications typically create files with permissions rw-r--r--.
I want to change this so that files are craeted with permissions rw-r-----.
That is, I want umask to be 0027, not 0022.
I have changed the default umask in /etc/login.defs and /etc/profile and my own .bash/profile.
This works for non-graphical sessions, but gnome-terminal continues to show umask = 0022, and applications continue to create files with permissions rw-r--r--.
I've searched various documentations and also greped files in /etc for umaak, and have found nothing.
What is setting the overall default umask to 0022 and how can I change it? _______________________________________________ gnome-list mailing list gnome-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-list
