Hi,

I have a problem to solve, hopefully someone can help.  :-)

I need all files in a specific directory to be created with group write
permission (664) and all sub-directories 775.  I can set umask 002 in
the individual accounts for group members, but they are all remote and
just uploading files via WinSCP which means they aren't logged in or
using the shell.

I haven't so far been able to find out how to do this.

thanks,

--charlie
