On Mint Linux, I have SBBS (upgraded from 3.18 to 3.2 recently) running
as a service (systemctl) with user/group sbbs/sbbs.
I log in with a regular user account which I also added to sbbs group.

When SBBS creates files however, there is no rw access for sbbs group
so my user account cant read the logs. Is there anything I missed
setting that allows this?

Usually I just ran as root so I didnt have to deal with any permission
issues. :P

Thanks!

Change the [unix] umask in sbbs.ini to include group rw permissions: https://wiki.synchro.net/config:nix#umask

Yeah that was it, thanks. I could have sworn I changed it to 002 but apparently not.

Thanks!
