SUMMARY: default group permissions





thanks to (in alphabetical order):

	Richard Bemrose <rb237@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
        Ed Bolson <BOLSON@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
        Nathan Dietsch <ndietsch@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
        Sean O'Connell <sean@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
        Blake Roberts <BlaRob@xxxxxxxx>
        Jon Vaupel <Jvaupel@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
        Frank Wortner <frank@xxxxxxxxxxx>

all gave similar answers right away, but Richard Bemrose and Sean
O'Connell gave me information about the /etc/csh.login and /etc/csh.cshrc
files that i really needed.

the answer is to set umask to the value i wanted, in this case i chose
022, and then to stick the line
	umask 022

into the /etc/csh.login or /etc/csh.cshrc files.  these files are sourced
by all shells when the user logs in.  while i was at it i stuck a bunch of
other definitions in there as well that i had been unable to impress upon
the users to put in their own .cshrc or .login files.

thanks for the help!

ciao
claudia
