I use ftpd and i config one user (ftpesept) like that in ftpaccess file:

upload /export/home/ftp/RecensementCanada * yes ftpesept ftp 0644 dirs

When the user ftpesept logg in ftp, he can make new directory and upload files.
When he upload files, the protection was like that:

rwxr-xr-x     ftpesept     ftp

And that was ok.  I want anonymous user to access that files.

But when the user ftpesept do a makedir, than the directory protection was like that:

rwxrwxr-x    ftpesept ftp

And that was not OK because anonymous user can transfert in that directory!!!

So why the makedir command not use the 0644 in upload command when creating directory???
