Permissions issue

Hello,
I'm having an issue with a directory that is used to forward Windows logs. I have a user account on Windows servers that uses SCP to put logs on my Solaris 10 server. A appliance called LogLogic then takes the logs from my server and stores them. I need to have have group read so the LogLogic appliance can pull the logs.

The directory is /loglogic. Then each windows server puts it's logs into a directory with the same name as it has.
Example:
Code:
cd /loglogic
ls -l
drwxr-x--- 1 winaccout loglogic 6 Mar 7  10:56 wina
drwxr-x--- 4 winaccout loglogic 6 Mar 7  10:56 winb
drwxr-x--- 2 winaccout loglogic 6 Mar 7  10:56 winc

I have tried to use umask to set the permissions but it is not working. I have also add a umask statement in the .profile file.
Code:
umask 
0037
touch ju;ls -l ju
-rw-r----- 1 winaccout loglogic 0 Mar 7  10:56 ju

I was expecting 740. I also tried umask u=rwx,g=r,o= and this didn't work ether.
I have also tested with scp.
Code:
scp  file  winaccount@solaris:/loglogic:/loglogic/wina/
ls -l /loglogic:/loglogic/wina/file
-rw------  1 winaccout loglogic 6 Mar 7  10:56 file

It looks like there is a setting for ssh I also need to worry about.

Can you give me a hand?
