file from ftp with default permission format 664, help pls...

[h3nd]

Hi guys,

I need to have the file to be format 664 when the files are coming from ftp.

The current default that I've got is 644, even after I changed the umask value into 002.

So do you guys have any idea to change the permission with data coming from ftp ?

Thx guys

On AIX you need to change the call to the ftp daemon to include the flag

-u 002

This can be changed using

smitty inetdconf
change/show characteristics of an inetd subserver

I'm not sure how it's done on other flavours of Unix but start by looking in /etc/inetd.conf

what about in Redhat flavour man.

Is it the same ?

Sorry, I don't run ftp on my RH boxes, but there's no inetd.conf so it can't be there.
Anyone else?

Are you using vsftp ? /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf change the umask value in the config and restart the service

on most recent redhats :
service vsftpd restart

all should be well.

if some other ftp daemon, no clue soz.
