      pam_umask is a PAM module to set the file mode creation mask
      of the current environment. The umask affects the default
      permissions assigned to newly created files.
    </p><p>
      The PAM module tries to get the umask value from the
      following places in the following order:
      </p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: disc; "><li class="listitem"><p>
            umask= argument
          </p></li><li class="listitem"><p>
            umask= entry in the user's GECOS field
          </p></li><li class="listitem"><p>
            UMASK= entry from /etc/default/login
          </p></li><li class="listitem"><p>
            UMASK entry from /etc/login.defs
          </p></li></ul></div><p>
    </p><p>
      The GECOS field is split on comma ',' characters. The module
      also in addition to the umask= entry recognizes pri= entry,
      which sets the nice priority value for the session, and
      ulimit= entry, which sets the maximum size of files the processes
      in the session can create.
