useradd - xDamox - 2006-03-12
Hey all,
I am not sure if this is a security issue in Fedora Core 5 but when using useradd the user home directory
is created with the following permissions; 755
If anyone is using Fedora Core 5 I would suggest editing the /etc/login.defs and appending the following:
UMASK 077
This affects Fedora Core 4 too
