Hi Joachim, Do you know where I can set the umask globally in Suse?
/etc/initscript
Also /etc/login.defs
James, I don't know about 10.2, but in 10.0 /etc/initscript does not exist. Changing UMASK in /etc/login.defs does NOT change the umask globally. It just changes the access rights of newly created home directories (by useradd, cf. the comments above the UMASK entry in that file). The umask in SUSE 10.0 is set globally in /etc/profile. To change it, one adds a file with "umask 002" to /etc/profile.d/, or one creates /etc/profile.local. I dunno about 10.2, maybe there /etc/initscripts changes the situation.
