How can I get a Windows User to create files in the Interix tree that would be read/writable by all (unix 666). The files, even text files, get created with read/write/execute for the user and no access for anyone else (not counting Administrator).
We're faking it at the moment with chmods in scripts but we alway miss some it seems. I'm hoping that there is a better way and that I've just been too dense to find it.
TIA - Heinz

umask 022

umask 000
umask -S

That works only for a unix user creating files, no?
I need a Windows User to create file with same umask but just in case it will, I've changed profile.lcl from umask 0 to umask 000 and have also added a umask 000 to /etc/profile

The Win32 process (or underlying API call) won't be creating the ACL with the Unix
ACE's needed for a correct Unix representation in the majority of the cases.
Interix will try to interpret/translate what is in the ACL to a "Unix-view" as
best as possible. There isn't the equivalent of a umask for Win32.
You can try setting the directories in question to "inherit" to see if that
will help. It's the check box on the security tab of the properties GUI you
can popup from File Explorer for a particular directory. No guarantees :-)
