FTP default file permission 1

[sendhilk]

Hi,

When i FTP a file to a server i want the default permission of the file to be set to 664 but instead it is set to 644. I tried setting umask to 002 in my profile with no luck.
Could anyone please suggest a way i could do this.

Thanks,
Sendhil

You could try using the SITE UMASK 002 FTP command before sending the files, but it may not be supported by your FTP server. Or SITE CHMOD 664 filename. Annihilannic.

Actually, from ftpd's man page:

[tt]
in.ftpd's umask (which it uses to create files during
PUT operations) may be adjusted by adding the line

UMASK=nnn


to /etc/default/ftpd[/tt]

That should do the trick! Annihilannic.
