The umask affects the default permissions assigned to newly -created files. - -The PAM module tries to get the umask value from the following places in the -following order: - - • umask= entry in the user's GECOS field - - • umask= argument - - • UMASK entry from /etc/login.defs - - • UMASK= entry from /etc/default/login - -The GECOS field is split on comma ',' characters. The module also in addition -to the umask= entry recognizes pri= entry, which sets the nice priority value -for the session, and ulimit= entry, which sets the maximum size of files the -processes in the session can create. - -OPTIONS - -debug - - Print debug information. - -silent - - Don't print informative messages. - -usergroups - - If the user is not root and the username is the same as primary group name, - the umask group bits are set to be the same as owner bits (examples: 022 -> - 002, 077 -> 007). - -nousergroups - - This is the direct opposite of the usergroups option described above, which - can be useful in case pam_umask has been compiled with usergroups enabled - by default and you want to disable it at runtime. - -umask=mask - - Sets the calling process's file mode creation mask (umask) to mask & 0777. - The value is interpreted as Octal. - -EXAMPLES - -Add the following line to /etc/pam.d/login to set the user specific umask at -login: - - session optional pam_umask.so umask=0022 - - -AUTHOR - -pam_umask was written by Thorsten Kukuk <kukuk@thkukuk.de>. - |
