It isn't in normally in "bashrc", it is in: "/etc/profile" on my system.

--------------------------------

if [ `id -gn` = `id -un` -a `id -u` -gt 14 ]; then
	umask 002
else
	umask 022
fi

--------------------------------

The first one is for 'root' and the second is for users' accounts.

Change it to 007.

Then, you need to make sure that "profile" ie run.  And this may be your 
  only problem that it isn't being run.

The "Xsession" script must be a login script.  Change the first line to:

	#!/bin/bash --login
