This reminds me of a struggle I had a while ago...
I wanted to change my umask value... Naturally I wanted to be the
same when I logged in on console, with gdm (and not just in a terminal
here but also when using [gnome-]applications) or ssh.
I tried this with /etc/profile, and even with libpam-umask but could
not get my umask set when logging in with gdm...I only got it on the
console. And even if I got this to work, I was using ways only
available to root. This should be possible as a user imho.
Any suggestions?
