File permissions being reset to 644

[cemper]

Sorry if this is dupe, but I was searching for this problem for 1 hour now as I even had it before but I couldn't find a cure somewhere..-

Problem is that files in accounts are all RESET to 644,
even if I manually (as root) set them to 666 for writing thru a script
(i.e. a logfile)

there are only very FEW of these files on the server,
however I am looking for the switch or script to STOP this
permission cleaning/resetting as the whole server is managed and operated within my company only anyway

Please advise!

thanks
christoph

PS: and I DID fix this 2 yrs ago on another server, I just can't remember how

PPS: running WHM 10.8.0 cPanel 10.9.0-R139
RedHat Enterprise 4 i686 - WHM X v3.1.0

Are you referring to files within the user accounts or system files? If the latter, which ones in particular? If the former, are you referring to files within a user public_html directory? IF so, do the accounts have FP extensions enabled?

Hi,

yes, it's some files within a user public_html directory

No frontpage extensions installed (at least not anymore...I often forget to uncheck them)

thanks,christoph
