FILE_CREATE_MODE

FILE_CREATE_MODE <mode>

On Unix systems, FairCom DB defaults to a permission mode of 0660 (read/write access for owner and group; no access for world) for the files it creates.

When using FairCom DB, the permission mode assigned to files can be set with the server configuration keyword FILE_CREATE_MODE to specify the desired file permission mode.

Example

;Set read and write permission for owner

;and no permission for group and world.

FILE_CREATE_MODE 0600

Note: On Unix systems, the system’s umask setting also affects the permission mode assigned to a file when it is created. If the umask setting is non-zero, the specified permissions are removed from the file’s permission mode.
