Hello Jim,

 Thanks for your repsonse. This is a real example without jsh

SunOS-/ve1/miaeod/bnk/bnk.run:
SunOS-/ve1/miaeod/bnk/bnk.run: umask 002
SunOS-/ve1/miaeod/bnk/bnk.run: touch thisisatest.txt
SunOS-/ve1/miaeod/bnk/bnk.run: ls -lrt thisisatest.txt
-rw-rw-r--   1 miaeod   tafc           0 Dec 13 08:23 thisisatest.txt
SunOS-/ve1/miaeod/bnk/bnk.run: TEST.OPENSEQ
SunOS-/ve1/miaeod/bnk/bnk.run: ls -rlt test.txt
-rw-rw-rw-   1 miaeod   tafc           0 Dec 13 08:23 test.txt
SunOS-/ve1/miaeod/bnk/bnk.run: echo $SHELL
/bin/ksh
SunOS-/ve1/miaeod/bnk/bnk.run:

As you can see the umask is set to 002, and the touch program inherits
that, but it seems the TEST.OPENSEQ (same program as previous example) does
not. Any ideas?
