Thanks. I think I got the umask thing the wrong way around.
I think I've got something the other way around with permissions
and umask.
Lets see: for files 4 is read, 2 is write and 1 is execute. For
directories: 4 is 'ls' cabailities, 2 is add/delete files and 1 is the 'go
through' and be able to read the files is they have the proper attributes.
If I have an umask of 027 then I should get the following result
independent of it's a file or dir: 750 -> rwxr-x---
And now I'm geting 640 for files.
What am I missing here?
I guess that an you have to subtract 1 when dealing with files...
TIA!
