Mac OS X 10.8.5, 10.9.x. I'm running into an issue where files downloaded using a browser to a user's desktop have the mode bits set at 600. I need them to be set to at least 660. I have tried putting "umask 007" in either the "/etc/launchd-user.conf" or the "/etc/profile" (and rebooting). When I run "umask" in a shell window, it returns "007" for both config's. If I touch a new file, the permissions come out as 660. It's just files download via browser that seem to have this problem. Has anyone been able to get 660's on browser downloaded files? |
