Package: adduser Version: 3.118 Followup-For: Bug #442627 Dear Maintainer,
Unless I'm wrong, I expected the home directories to be set to mode 0700. Instead, they are still set to 0755 because /etc/adduser.conf still has: # If DIR_MODE is set, directories will be created with the specified # mode. Otherwise the default mode 0755 will be used. DIR_MODE=0755 Can this be set by default? From the security point of view alone it should be the route to go. When the package is updated it should ask the user if this wants to be set, say if the file was modified recently. Thanks!
