Umask

Hi. Im currently using a Trustix cPanel server with standard cPanel included software. For some reason my UMASK keeps changing back to 0077 everytime i reboot or restart apache or somthing.... how do i get it to make 0027 the default umask setting?

I think you can change the umask value in /etc/profile.

I think default umask is 0022
You can chage this using
umask 0022

If it still changes, put this into bashrc script or somthing like that as per your distro and shell type.
