Default file permissions

[Stuart Driver]

On my servers my default file creation for users was 666.

I have now converted my servers to trusted system and the default is 600.

Were can I change the system default back to
666.

At the moment I am using umask to overide this for each user in their .profile

Stuart,
I would try setting umask in /etc/profile.
Let us know whether it works.

that worked thanks

May I just point out that the main purpose of "Trusted System" mode is enhanced security, and global write permissions are inherently insecure?
Can I also suggest that you reconsider using 666 as the default.
664 is the minimum level of permissions security you should be using.
