UMASK setting

What is the default umask for hp unix 11? Does it set for all users including root? where is it? How do I change it? I thought it's in /etc/default/login but this find did not exist on the server.

Thanks in advance for you help

Re: UMASK setting

Hi:

The default is what you declare it. You can place a umask setting in /etc/profile and/or in $HOME/.profile for Posix and ksh shell users.
