Sorry if this question has been asked many times before.
On a new CentOS 7 system, when I create files they end up with strange
permissions. For example, as root:
[root@server ~]# umask
0000
[root@server ~]# touch a
[root@server ~]# ls -l a
-r--r----- 1 root root 0 Oct 10 11:45 a
As a regular user:
[stern@server ~]$ umask
0000
[stern@server ~]$ touch b
[stern@server ~]$ ls -l b
-rw------- 1 stern stern 0 Oct 10 11:47 b
In both cases the permsissions should have been -rw-rw-rw-. What on
earth is going on, and how can I fix it?
Thanks,
Alan Stern

I'm sure I don't have an answer, but the last time I saw something like
that the problem was related to a fat or vfat file system (I believe).
What type of filesystem is "/"? What is the output from 'df -Th' ?
