-pam_umask — PAM module to set the file mode creation mask
-
-━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
-
-DESCRIPTION
-
-pam_umask is a PAM module to set the file mode creation mask of the current
-environment. 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= argument
-
- ● umask= entry of the users GECOS field
-
- ● pri= entry of the users GECOS field
-
- ● ulimit= entry of the users GECOS field
-
- ● UMASK= entry from /etc/default/login
-
- ● UMASK entry from /etc/login.defs
-
-OPTIONS
-
-debug
-

-
-silent
-
- Don't print informative messages.
-
-usergroups
-
- If the user is not root, and the user ID is equal to the group ID, 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).
-
-umask=mask
-
- Sets the calling process's file mode creation mask (umask) to mask & 0777.
- The value is interpreted as Octal.
-
