Type: global configuration directive
Default:
Description:
The $umask directive allows to specify the rsyslogd processes' umask. If not specified, the system-provided default is used. The value given must always be a 4-digit octal number, with the initial digit being zero.
If $umask is specified multiple times in the configuration file, results may be somewhat unpredictable. It is recommended to specify it only once.
Sample:
$umask 0000
This sample removes all restrictions.
