vsftpd chmod upload permissions

Question

I have vsftpd 2.3.2-3.

After user uploaded a file it has -rw-------(0600) permissions. Of course user can change permissions manually to anything he likes.

But how to set for example 0700 by default?

Solution

There is a setting in the vsftpd.conf file:

file_open_mode

The permissions with which uploaded files are created. Umasks are applied on top of this value. You may wish to change to 0777 if you want uploaded files to be executable.

Default: 0666

Simply change the mode to 0777, then with the umask added you get 0700
