umask on 11.11 trusted

I saw someone else asked this though it may not be the same issue.

How do I get hpux 11.11 to obey certain functions that are otherwise ignored on a trusted system?

Currently umask is ignored when the system is configured as trusted.

i.e. umask of 0000 or 0022 will still create files without execute perms.

I searched hp.com though did not find other topics pertaining to this.

Thanks :)

Umask has little to do with this. Umask cannot put in what was not there to begin with. The default mode for all regular files is 666 (rw-rw-rw-); for directories it is 777 (rwxrwxrwx). Umask is not ignored whether the system is trusted or untrusted. There are two components at play during file creation: 1) the mode argument and 2) umask. Umask modifies the mode argument to produce the actual file mode.

I found the problem. On the new servers, wu was ignoring ftpaccess.
