hi there, i have my imap server up and running and everything seems fine. apart from if a client creates a new folder using mozilla or outlook, the permissions get set as :-
drwx------ 6 omweb web 4096 May 19 18:34 .thunderbird whereas really i want it to be 775 like this :- drwxrwxr-x 6 omweb web 4096 May 19 18:34 .thunderbird (otherwise other applications wont be able to read this folder). so i looked in the archive list of messages at http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum_id=6705 and there was a similar question and the answer was :- check your umask settings so i checked mine and they are 0022 , which means new files will be mode 775 which is what i want. but the new directories are still being created as 700. these new directories reside on a nfs server which is mounted onto my imap server. and each user has his own entry in the /etc/userdb file. so how do i set the umask correctly? thanks for any help oliver -- Oliver Howe Technical Developer BiblioTech Unit 2, 50 Carnwarth Road London SW6 3EG DDI: +44 (0) 20 7384 6929 Tel: +44 (0) 20 7384 6900 Fax: +44 (0) 20 7384 6901 [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.bibliotech.net www.schoolmaster.net www.postmaster.co.uk www.officemaster.net IMPORTANT: The contents of this email, and any attachments, are CONFIDENTIAL and intended only for the person(s) to whom they are addressed.
