After much frustration, I decided to simply add a umask(000) to the
beginning of main() in order to alleviate troubles I've been having with the
perm() and dir_perm() configuration directives. One thing, though, that I
think is needed in the config that doesn't currently exist is dir_user() and
dir_group() directives to control the ownership of created directories.
Would anyone else find this useful?
