[comp.sys.sun] ftp from SGI to SUN: wrong permissions!!!

Claude.P.Cantin@nrc.ca (10/08/90)

We have, at our site, a combination of SGIs and SUNs.  When using ftp to
transfer a file from the SGI to the Sun, I end up with permissions

   rw-rw-rw

on the file (try it on the password file: ftp> put /etc/passwd passwd).
It does not seem to matter on which machine I ftp from/to, the permissions
always end up as above (as long as the file goes from SGI to Sun...).

My "umask" is set to "022" on both systems.  Any suggestions????  Thanks,
