Oh one more question related to permissions.

Is possible to create an umask that create file/folder without group permission ? (can we do that in Linux ?)

@SpongeBOB 077 gives you an “effective” permission of 700, so just the owner.

Is that what you are asking?

Edit: that’s rwx for the owner only
