Hello,
I'm wondering whether there is any way to truly stop users (they have
(s)FTP access, CGI, PHP) from making their scripts world accessible.
I know that I could set umask 027 so that all new files are 750 by
default but as far as I understand the umask concept, they still can
call chmod and make the files world accessible again, right? So I'm
looking for a bullet proof solution that really stops users from
making their data world accessible.


TIA & regards,
Gabriel
