BTW, in lucid, VFAT drives are mounted with umask 077 again, as in
Jaunty.

** Description changed:

- Binary package hint: devicekit-disks
- 
- Greetings!
- 
- After upgrading from 9.04 to 9.10, mounting removable USB media (e.g. a
- thumbdrive) from Nautilus defaults the umask/fmask such that all of the
- files are 0755 (world readable/executable).  While the dmask is set such
- that directories themselves are 0700, this does trip out software that
- is paranoid about security (e.g. ssh-add, for a private key stored on a
- thumbdrive).
- 
- Ideally, the umask should set the files to 0600 or 0700 by default.
- Even better, there should be an easy way to configure this (perhaps
- through the existing gconf system, which has
- /system/storage/default_options/vfat/mount_options ?).

+ There should be an easy way to configure the default umask for
+ VFAT/NTFS/similar file systems (perhaps through the existing gconf
+ system, which has /system/storage/default_options/vfat/mount_options ?).
