I have Linux win 95 system with an Apache webserver for program developing.

I want to have some cgi programs stored on the dos partition, which I link
via symbolic links from the /home/httpd/html/  Reason: I do most of my ftp
transfers while in win95.

So far, it works a bit, the file is found and even the cgi starts
executing.  But, it blows up as soon as the cgi programs wants to write a
file, because the default permissions of everything on the Dos partition
are 755, i.e. no write permission for the web server.

What determines the permissions on a Dos partition?  Probably the same as
the default permissions for files on Linux partitions?  How do I change
this, this is probably in some setup file.

What about umask?  But I prefer to use bash!

Please answer directly to [EMAIL PROTECTED], I might miss the answer on the list.

Thanks
