Sounds reasonable... But sysinstall --> UserAdd doesn't use the adduser Perl script, but the pw command. Just MHO, but I think the defaults are too "loose," not well-documented, and not easily auditable. Should I file a PR, maybe? CC'ing to -security... -kc >Date: Thu, 13 Sep 2001 09:56:22 -0

'adduser' is a perl script, search it for '755' and you will find where the permissions are set, it's trivial to change in the source, although logically this could be a configuration parameter. The script is in /usr/sbin/adduser. - Mike H. Date: Thu, 13 Sep 2001 09:17:51 -0400 (EDT) Fro

Default user directory (adduser) filemode

2001-09-13 Thread Kenneth W Cochran
Hello -stable: I notice that when I add a user to FreeBSD, either from adduser or from /stand/sysinstall --> UserAdd(sp?), the default filemode of the user's home directory is 755. So far, I can't find (something like) a config-option for this (i.e., in /etc/adduser.conf). Is this a bug or a fe
