'adduser' is a perl script, search it for '755' and you will find
where the permissions are set, it's trivial to change in the source,
although logically this could be a configuration parameter.  The
script is in /usr/sbin/adduser.

   Hello -stable:

   I notice that when I add a user to FreeBSD, either from adduser
   or from /stand/sysinstall --> UserAdd(sp?), the default filemode
   of the user's home directory is 755.  So far, I can't find
   (something like) a config-option for this (i.e., in
   /etc/adduser.conf).  Is this a bug or a feature(tm)?  :)

   OS is -stable (RELENG_4), as of 8 September 2001.

   Thanks,

   -kc
