why not execute privs?
I set umask ugo=rwx for a test user.
I then vi a test file (tree). When it's created it's not getting X, just RW.
"tree" [New file] 1 line, 5 characters
$ ls -ltr
total 672
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root sys 5296 Apr 3 06:33 ps_data
-rw-r--r-- 1 root other 5 Apr 25 12:41 speckeysd.lock
-rw------- 1 root other 310984 Apr 25 12:41 dtdbcache_:0
-rw-r--r-- 1 root other 0 Apr 25 12:41 sdtvolcheck3076
drwx------ 3 root root 244 Apr 25 12:42 smc898
-rw-rw-rw- 1 rallen cdsweb 5 May 16 12:46 tree
$ umask
00
$
When I create a file it has RW for UGO, but not X. Why isn't execute being set for UGO?
Thanks!

NBDST(8) BSD System Manager's Manual NBDST(8)
NAME
nbdst -- NetBoot deferred shadow tool
SYNOPSIS
nbdst [-recycle | -preallocate size] devnode shadowfile
DESCRIPTION
nbdst is used during NetBoot to associate a shadow file with the disk image being used as the root device. After the shadow file is attached,
subsequent writes to the root device will be redirected to the shadow file, which normally resides on local storage. nbdst is invoked by
/etc/rc.netboot
ARGUMENTS
The following arguments must be specified:
devnode The device node of the root device, in the form "disk0"
shadowfile Path to a shadow file which will be created and associated with the NetBoot root device
OPTIONS
-recycle If a shadow file already exists, reset it and use it again. Otherwise, information written to an existing shadow file will reap-
pear. Reusing a previous shadow file without resetting it requires that the shadow file be created with the same base image.
-preallocate size
Set the shadow file to the given size up front. This forces a reset of the shadow file (like -recycle).
NOTE
nbdst can only be run as root.
