Are you logging in via a Xterm when you test the shell or a terminal

your /etc/pam.d/login file for the line "session required pam_limits.so" this is what is reading your config files. Make sure the
same line appears in your /etc/pam.d/xdm file or you will only get the
settings via terminal logins..


Thanks for the input.

I'm afraid that doesn't fix this problem.

It's worse than I thought. When I use a gnome program, it has another way of setting permissions, to rw------- for some reason. Konqueror creates new files rw-r--r-- and OpenOffice creates according to my umask which gives rw-rw-r--

Gotta love that Linux desktop consistency!

Good day!
