Top Forums UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers Creating a file where the owner and group is not root Post 302653435 by Peasant on Saturday 9th of June 2012 01:12:44 AM

I would say that the remote server is creating the zip file, with 644 permission, the perl procedure fetches the zip files on local machine.

Since zip file is created on remote server with root and 644 permission, you will be able to fetch that archive with any user that has access via ssh/http/whatever

After that if you unzip the file localy with regular user, the files from archive will change the permission to one who unzipped it.

Hope that helps.
