I am having a strange problem with setting file permissions.

On
my fc4 file server I have a shared folder that has been setĀ 
recursively to 2770. This works ok

But if i set any folder with
umask 007, any subsequent new folder/file has read access forĀ 
"others" and is write-protected from the "group" when
i am expecting no access to others and write access for any one in the
group

if i type umask after going to the immediate parent
directory it is correct. ie "0007"

I can't figure
this out
