ftp with a umask of 002
 

I have a process that needs to ftp our unix server and upload a file with rw rw r permissions. How can I set this so the file is always rw rw r .

Is there a ftp setting for the umask somewhere?

thanks

Hi. I have a similar problem. I know you can set it with the umask command but I don't want to have to type that every time. You can set it every session with umask <desired umask> just like you would through telnet or normal xterm/console. If you type umask by itself, you will just get the current umask printed out for you.
