I know how can I change the umask settings for all the users using ftpd, but how can I change the umask for a given user using FTPD?
AIX/6100-05-02-1034 FTP server (Version 4.2)

The AIX ftpd doesn't provide per-user umask settings. You can set a global umask value with the -u switch, but neither the command line nor the configuration file allow you to set this on a per-user basis.
Note that you can set the umask, and run chmod, from the client side with SITE commands:
SITE UMASK 002 SITE CHMOD 600 your_file 
chsubserver -c -v ftp -p tcp "ftpd -l -u077 refresh -s inetd 
- Hi! It would be great if you could expand your answer to explain how it works and why it solves the problem, in as much detail as is relevant.dhag– dhag2015-05-08 15:16:57 +00:00Commented May 8, 2015 at 15:16
