Hi,
I need to change my umask from 22 to 0022. FreeBSD 5.4 has different way of looking at 22 and 0022. Untill 4.11 stable 022 and 0022 were same. Can anyone help me?
Thanks in advance.

I've got a number of people sending files to me in different directory structures, and users on many different groups who need access to these incoming paths.
My problem is that umask assumes a default of 666 for files. No execute bit, meaning that my users can't even see the incoming folders.... (2 Replies)

mkfifo
MKFIFO(1) BSD General Commands Manual MKFIFO(1)NAME
mkfifo -- make fifos
SYNOPSIS
mkfifo [-m mode] fifo_name ...
DESCRIPTION
mkfifo creates the fifos requested, in the order specified. By default, the resulting fifos have mode 0666 (rw-rw-rw-), limited by the cur-
rent umask(2).
The options are as follows:
-m Set the file permission bits of newly-created fifos to mode, without respect to the current umask.
The mode is specified as in chmod(1). In symbolic mode strings, the ``+'' and ``-'' operators are interpreted relative to an assumed
initial mode of ``a=rw''
mkfifo requires write permission in the parent directory.
mkfifo exits with 0 if successful, and with >0 if an error occurred.
LEGACY DESCRIPTION
In legacy mode, the fifo's file permission bits are always limited by the current umask.
For more information about legacy mode, see compat(5).
SEE ALSO mkdir(1), rm(1), umask(1), mkfifo(2), umask(2), compat(5), mknod(8)STANDARDS
The mkfifo utility is expected to be IEEE Std 1003.2-1992 (``POSIX.2'') compliant.
