Of course there are many ways this can be handled, some more hackish then others, but one of the better solutions is to change the umask call in login.c and possibly in cron.c as well, this way you don't have to rebuild the kernel. Oh, by the way, I haven't checked it out yet myself, but someone said that 4.3 login.c doesn't have a umask call in it. What's to stop one from adding it! franco%mikey.bbn.com@relay.cs.net
