We have people SSHing into our Linux box from overseas (India to US, company access only). But files that are uploaded from these people become read-only to anyone else accessing them. We *require* that they be readable/writable by this side of the pond (US). How can I set this to occur? Otherwise, this method of transferring files will *not* work for us, and perhaps someone can point me to another solution. Second question... How can I recursively set all files/directories to 777? Chmod -R 777 *.* ... Didn't seem to hit everything.
