Operating Systems Linux Red Hat Changing system-wide for umask Post 302854139 by Corona688 on Monday 16th of September 2013 07:14:20 PM

Depends what your /etc/profile and /etc/bashrc contain.

They are script files. What they do depends on what's been put in them. /etc/bashrc doesn't automatically get loaded by bash, but /etc/profile does - and it might have a line in it that says to load /etc/bashrc... It comes down to the people who designed your distribution, what belongs where.

Which is to say, there is not necessarily a "put line here to affect system umask" line in them. You'll have to read them and figure out where it belongs, or post them here and ask.

AUTODEP(8)							     AppArmor								AUTODEP(8)

NAME
aa-autodep - guess basic AppArmor profile requirements SYNOPSIS
aa-autodep <executable> [<executable> ...] DESCRIPTION
aa-autodep is used to generate a minimal AppArmor profile for a set of executables. This program will generate a profile for binary executable as well as interpreted script programs. At a minimum aa-autodep will provide a base profile containing a base include directive which includes basic profile entries needed by most programs. The profile is generated by recursively calling ldd(1) on the executables listed on the command line. BUGS
This program does not perform full static analysis of executables, so the profiles generated are necessarily incomplete. If you find any bugs, please report them to bugzilla at <http://bugzilla.novell.com>. SEE ALSO
