umask in the above example is 022. To create a file automatically
with rw-rw-r-- permissions, change umask 002.
HOWEVER: according to the man page files are always created
without any execute permission. UNLESS the file is a shell script,
PERL script, awk script, etc, x permission makes no sense. The
only files that are created with execute permissions are directories
(which are special files. In other words, all direrctories have umask
applied to 777, while ordinary files start at 666 and then umask is
subtracted.
If you truly want 774 permission, you'll have to use chmod.

Subject: [HPADM] File creation
Hello Admins,
I want to change my file create permissions to the following:
-rwxrwxr-- 1 pm61dev dba 0 Oct 6 13:03 test
Currently my umask only creates with:
#touch test
pm61dev@iceman : /home/informatica/6.1 : SID:`EP88DEV`
#ll test
-rw-r--r-- 1 pm61dev dba 0 Oct 6 13:03 test
TIA.
