Nice and simple! I've done that. Interestingly, though, the umask gets
modified somewhere else if I log in locally, but that's not really a
problem which belongs here. For example, I've set the umask to "000" in
"/etc/profile.local" but always when I log in locally (logging in via NX
is no problem), then it gets modified to "002", and I don't know where
that happens. However, as I've decided on using "002" as the umask for
non-root users logging into the system, this is no actual problem.
