Top Forums UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers Default umask setting during ftp AIX Post 302910960 by rbatte1 on Tuesday 29th of July 2014 09:26:35 AM

This may be considered illegal and ignored (assuming that your FTP process doesn't set the permissions itself)

You should really try ftp -u 002 to be clear.

Setting the umask value for ftpd will also not set the file executable. I think it is always considered as a transfer for data. If you need this, then consider something like:-
Code:
ftp -nv $target <<-EOFTP
   user $user $password
   cd /target/dir
   put sourcefile targetfile
   site chmod 750 targetfile
   quit
EOFTP

It would be a little odd (but not illegal) to have a .txt file set as executable.


I hope that this helps,
Robin
