on my web server i have 2 users that are part of the website group. i want the umask of both users to be 002 so they can create files and directories that are group writable. this way if user1 creates a directory user2 can interact, create subdirectories, delete files and directories etc... without having to have root chmod -R g=u,o=u-w . withing the default directory of the web page every time a file or directory is changed.
user1 connects via ssh either from linux or OSx, user2 uses winSCP
http://winscp.net/eng/index.php
to connect from windows and from time to time will use putty.
now in the .bashrc under both user1 and user2 umask 002 has been set.
Code:
cat .bashrc
# .bashrc
# Source global definitions
if [ -f /etc/bashrc ]; then
. /etc/bashrc
fi
#set file creation mask
umask 002
alias d='ls -laF'
# User specific aliases and functions
is that not set correctly?
