This was in reference to :
case a) open FILE , ">/path/to/file";
right now i just umask before the file creation each time, and that works, but like everyone else here, i want what works best
I see. In which case it has nothing to do in particular with modperl. It's the same with any perl script you run from the command line. It creates the files with the ownership/perms of the user you run the script with... unless you change that with umask as others have suggested.
