Hi there,
I'm trying to make files uploaded though vsftpd have 0775
permissions on the server.
An equivalent to wu-ftpds "defumask 0002" if you want.

local_umask=002
only seems to for for newly created files and dirs
on the server, not for uploaded ones.

file_open_mode=0777
is supposed to set permissions on uploaded files according to the manual.
I tried this option with several different perms but to no avail.
It doesn't seem to have any effect whatsoever
Any file that I upload keeps the permissions that it had on the client.

Can anybody help me out here?

Hi K-bot,
Here is what I have found. If you are using Virtual users, then their permissions are set according to the anon account (anon_umask). If you want the Virtual users to have separate permissions, then add 'virtual_use_local_privs=YES' in the vsftpd.conf file.

Hope this helps,
Higgy
