I received several replies. They all indicated that the best course of action was to upgrade to either proftp or vsftp. Thanks to all that replied.

There is one specific user that logs in and that user is requesting that the files have a umask of 002. I looked into the ftpaccess file and the possible ways to achieve this. I found the "defumask" directive and according to the man page (ftpaccess (4)), I can use the following syntax: Defumask 002 realusers The realusers is the class that I was hoping to be able to assign this particular user to. This seems to work because if I remove the class from this line, the umask becomes 002 for all users. The rub is.... I can't seem to find the syntax on assigning users to the class. Has anyone done this? How do I assign a specific user to the realusers class? Thanks. I will summarize.
