[-- Attachment #1 --] Hi there, I noticed today that the home directory for a new user created via any of these methods will always have permissions `rwxr-xr-x`: 1. `adduser -M 700` 2. `adduser`, and then manually specify `700` in interactive mode 3. Configure default mode via `adduser -C`, then execute the above #1 or #2 `adduser` seems to always ignore the specified mode. Is this a bug, or is this user error? freebsd-version -kru gives: 14.1-RELEASE 14.1-RELEASE 14.1-RELEASE-p1 Best, Daniel Li [-- Attachment #2 --] <div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail-gs" style="margin:0px;min-width:0px;padding:0px 0px 20px;width:initial;font-family:"Google Sans",Roboto,RobotoDraft,Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:medium"><div class="gmail-"><div id="gmail-:2e6" class="gmail-ii gmail-gt" style="direction:ltr;margin:8px 0px 0px;padding:0px;font-size:0.875rem;overflow-x:hidden"><div id="gmail-:2e5" class="gmail-a3s gmail-aiL" style="direction:initial;font-variant-numeric:normal;font-variant-east-asian:normal;font-variant-alternates:normal;font-kerning:auto;font-feature-settings:normal;font-stretch:normal;font-size:small;line-height:22.1px;font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;overflow:auto hidden"><div dir="ltr">Hi there,<div><br></div><div>I noticed today that the home directory for a new user created via any of these methods will always have permissions `rwxr-xr-x`:</div><div><br></div><div>1. `adduser -M 700`</div><div>2. `adduser`, and then manually specify `700` in interactive mode</div><div>3.
