I did a few simple tests here, I also find that umask doesn't like |
| 7 |
setting sticky and {s,g}uid. Maybe you can achieve the same result with |

acls? |

What's the reason you want to set the sticky bit for thaqt user? With |
| 11 |
some more info, maybe we can come up with an alternative |

|

Incidentally, even if we persuade umask to set the sticky bit on dirs, |
| 14 |
it's probably not what you want, as it'll make all files sticky as well |
