Hi,

Please, let me know how the umask is working? As per my understanding is aprt from subtracting from 666/777, logical gate operation is performing.

Ex: If I set uname 011, it gave the permission like 666 for file. Request you to explain which gate's operation performed.

$uname 011
$uname
0011
$vi abc
$ls -l abc

Regards,
Naga
