Why copied file permission is changed in destination. When i
give all permission i.e 777 to file and copy that to other
location in destination the permission is 755. But if give
permission 555 in destination that file permission is 755
and if give permission 444 to file after copy in destination
the file permission is 444. These all are happening in
normal user. How the umask value is calculate here really i
am not understand. Please every body and wite the proper
answer. Thanks in Advance

Answer / gowri
for file with permission 777 and with default umask 022 it
gets (777-022=755) so the permission changes to 755.
bt if a file with permission 444 and default umask 022 (444-
022=422) here it makes no sense with 422 permission so it
doesnt change and permission remains the same 444.
