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 . + -- cgit v1.2.3
