Is there anyway to set the defumask per user based in real user name (ie the
username listed in /etc/passwd)? I see that it can be done by source address,
but this will not work for me.

I am trying to set a different umask for users of a certain realgroup (defined
in /etc/groups).

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

Hello,

Is there a way to set "defumask" for a group (as defined in /etc/group) so
that any user (defined in /etc/passwd) of that group will have the specified
umask?

I realize that this can be done by source address of the user, but I need to
be able to do it either by username or group instead.
