files uploaded to anonymous ftp not readable by anonymous
 

i'm running slackware 10.0 (-current) with vsftpd setup through inetd.conf; I have it setup to be accessible through anonymous and with anonymous write enabled

i can successfully upload files, but i cannot read them while anonymous; looking at the file permissions, i see that they are owned by ftp.ftp with 600 permissions

is there any way to automatically allow those uploaded files to have 666 permissions?

Hi,

try to look at umask command for your ftp user...
Hope this help

This is how FTP servers are set up by default, for security reasons. It's generally not a good idea to allow anonymous users to upload files and then allow other anonymous users to download them, unless the server is only accessible to people behind I firewall (i.e. on a corporate network where users are all relatively trusted) or you don't mind having your hard drive filled with malware and cracks.
