Hello,

I am in desperate need of help. I can not get the
permissions
to come out correctly when I try to CVSup my ports (&
docs).
Currently I am getting the permissions of 700 (in
relation to
root) Here is what I have for config files and what I
have done..
# change "RELENG_4" to "RELENG_3" or "RELENG_2_2"
respectively.
*default release=cvs tag=RELENG_4
*default delete use-rel-suffix

# If your network link is a T1 or faster, comment out
the following line.
*default compress

## Main Source Tree.
#
# The easiest way to get the main source tree is to
use the "src-all"
# mega-collection.  It includes all of the individual
"src-*" collections.
# Please note:  If you want to track -STABLE, leave
this uncommented.
ports-all tag=.
doc-all

#my umask
root# umask
700

#so I changed it to 022 (to change perm. to 755)
root# umask 22

#double check to make sure it worked
root# umask
022

#okay, now I changed to /usr/ports (which probably
isn't necessary, but)
#and ran cvsup

root# cd /usr/ports
root# cvup /etc/stable-supfile


#that completes successfully, so now I check the
permissions again
root# ls (equivalent to ls -l from my shell settings)

------clipped----

As you can see, all new directories are the wrong
permissions. Only root
is able to search the ports collection and run any of
the programs I now
install for some reason. Do you know what I am doing
wrong????

If you have any ideas or tips, please let me know....


TIA,

Thomas Kersten
