Hello list,

I encounter a problem and can't finger out why it is:

For hostA
1. ssh user@hostA umask shows 0022
2. ssh root@hostA umask shows 0022
For hostB
3. ssh user@hostB umask shows 0077
4. ssh root@hostB umask shows 0022

md5sum for files
/etc/login.defs
/etc/pam.d/login
/etc/pam.d/ssh
/etc/ssh/sshd_config
in both hosts are same

What can be reason the umask are different in normal user when ssh in
notty mode?

Thanks.

Regards,
Ding Honghui

Have you checked that users .bash_profile, that would be my first guess..

Hello Jeff,

Bash will not read the profile when in notty mode.
The /etc/profile and .bash_profile both set the umask to 022, so after
login, the hostA and hostB any user have same umask.
The problem occurs in notty mode.

Perhaps .bashrc then? That should be run for all interactive shells
(including some shells that look interactive, but aren't).

Not the .bashrc, any other possible clue?
