Is there a way to make a default mask for files created in a directory
and have it permanent.
My issue is I am running Apache and have a directory that I want 2
different users to be able to ftp into and both have read-write access
to. But of course when a file is sent it gets 644 access, I want all
newly created files to have 664 access by default so they can both work
on those files. How?

I use sco openserver 5.0.4 and to set the default file permissions I
change the umask of the ftpd deamon found in etc/inetd.conf.

ftp .......nowait......etc/ftpd -u022

remember that when you change this, you need to restart your ftpd
service, just do a :
kill -hup <process_id>

also take a look at umask, ftpd and inetd.conf manuals
Good luck.
