Re: [galaxy-dev] Tightening up galaxy filesystem permissions

Hi there! Is there a way to change the permissions that Galaxy uses when creating datasets and database directories? At the moment everything is created u+rw, g+r, o+r, whereas those latter two read permissions aren't really necessary.

Hi Peter,

Galaxy attempts to honor the umask(1) set in the startup environment. For files that are u+rw only, set your umask to 077.

--nate

Thanks, Peter
