A permission/Chmod question
I have a html file (foo.html) and a folder (/boo) with many html files. By default, all files I create, uploading via FTP or created in command-line, have permission rw-------. I would like to know if I can set rwx-r--r-- to foo.html and all html files in /boo, and set /boo drwx-r-xr-x. So that I will not need to use FTP or SSH to login evrey time afterI create a new file (because if I do not modify the permission of the file, others cannot view them since their default permissions are all 600.
Thanks
Thanks
The default file permissions will depend on your FTP server settings. Alternatively, you can do a chmod on the file from the FTP client after you have uploaded it.

That takes more time. In fact, I am using blogger.com to publish blogs in my department marchine.
So you are FTPing the files from blogger.com?
ASKER
Blogger.com does the FTP job for me. I just need to tell my ftp username and pwd. that's why I do not want to use ftp tool to modify permission manually.
OK, so you're initiated the FTP transfer from blogger.com to a FTP server sitting on your network?
If so, what FTP server are you running?
If so, what FTP server are you running?

I am not sure. I only know server's OS is solaris. I need to ask our department's network admin.
If your network admin is the person responsible for your FTP server, then they will be the person who can change the configuration to change the umask of your FTP user.

This is the .login file. I added setenv UMASK 077, but it does not work.
# login (July 13, 1999)
# Solaris desktop doesn't want to source these. (see .dtprofile)
# As well, we only want .login if there is a user attached
# to the terminal. ($prompt will be set)
if (! $?DT && $?prompt) then
if (! ${?CS_TRACE}) setenv CS_TRACE 0
if (${CS_TRACE} > 0) then
cs_echo '<- .login'
setenv CS_TRACE $CS_TRACE
endif
# This ensures your DISPLAY is set. (Remote logins)
eval `setdisplay -eval`
# If you add anything, add it here.
##I added this line, but it does not work
setenv UMASK 077
# Add packages here.
#enable -fq jdk #Java support
# This is how we get tcsh instead of csh
if (-x /cs/local/bin/tcsh) then
set tmp=/cs/local/bin/tcsh
else
set tmp=`which tcsh`
endif
# Only switch to tcsh if it exists somewhere in the path.
if (-x "$tmp" && $SHELL !~ *tcsh) then
if (${CS_TRACE} > 0) then
cs_echo ' <- tcsh'
@ CS_TRACE++
setenv CS_TRACE $CS_TRACE
endif
setenv SHELL $tmp
exec $tmp
endif
if (${CS_TRACE} > 0) then
cs_echo '.login ->'
endif
