[luau] Unwanted Perrmissions Changes - Drake 8.2

[Joe Linux]

I'm very frustrated.  I want the permissions on my home directory and 
other users home directory to be 770, but the Mandrake Linux  System 
constantly changes the permissions back to 755 on these directories.  Is 
there anyway to stop it from doing this?

Permissions and the lack of control over them are the most annoying 
thing about Linux, and probably a primary reason the entire OS is not 
very popular.
