Re: OS400/Unix authority settings

I thought the remote system would set the authorities too but the remote system, one of our 3rd parties says that the settings must be made on our system.

I thought, depending on how files are sent, that the authority on the remote
ystem would be determined by that system. For example, when a file is created
n a Unix system, the default authority is determined by the value of the umask
ariable. Just seems that applications on the remote system would have to make
hat adjustment. An example is a DEC system, which has owner, group, other, and
orld settings. Not directly translatable to OS/400, which is why I thought
nly the remote system could make that adjustment.

Hi Folks, Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays!

I'm working with a biz partner who's requiring the permissions on IFS files to
e set to
644(rw-r--r--) on files that I send to his system from our AS400's.

What would be the IFS authority settings, if any, that would correspond to
44(rw-r--r--)? Is there any place to find that info?

Thanks, Frank
