Hi.  I'm using FreeBSD-4.0 stable.  Is there a way to set the umask
for anonymous ftp users?  I have setup a pseudo-anonymous account with
a restricted shell, and I would like files created by the ftp user 
(via ftp) to be group-writable. 

I understand that WU-ftpd has an option 'defumask' in the ftpaccess
file that sets the default UMASK for a class of users.  My pseudo-
anonymous user is in a special login group, but the umask setting in
login.conf doesn't seem to matter to ftpd.

Thanks for any suggestions.

-Brent
