I have a program that ftp to a 10.20 hp from a novell 4.1x server. When the program connects and signs on to the hp using a user account I can see to ftpd daemon activated on the hp side. As you know the default umask for the ftpd is 027, which leaves the files that transferred secured as 'rw-r-----'. I need to have these files secured as
'rw-rw-rw-'.
What can I do to the ftpd on the hp side to change this security. Or do I need to do something the ftp on the novell side, being that is where the ftp is starting. If that is the case does anyone know what can be done to the novell ftp. There is no umask command. thanks for any help you might be able to give....Jay
Solved! Go to Solution.

Re: ftp from novell server
Find the line that starts 'ftp ' and add the appropriate -u
Then force inetd to reread its config file by typing 'inetd -c'

Re: ftp from novell server
You need to edit /etc/inetd.conf on the HP box and set the umask for ftp to what you want, eg;
ftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/lbin/ftpd ftpd -l -u 002

Re: ftp from novell server
Restart inetd daemon (inetd -c). See man ftpd for more details.

Re: ftp from novell server
The account that you use to ftp should have the umask set up accordingly. The umask man pages say:
" The umask command sets the value of the file mode creation mask or
displays the current one. The mask affects the initial value of the
file mode (permission) bits for subsequently created files."
ie. any new files created under the user id will inherit the permissions specified by umask.

Re: ftp from novell server
Before including umask (002), think of the security implecations involved with ftp on your system. You can also enhance this by putting the address in /var/adm/inetd.sec i.e ftpd allow (ip address) as an added security measure.
Cheers!
