sftp and permissions

jon1981 · 2008-07-10 15:54:43

hi, just a query, i create a file with permissions 664 and when i sftp to another server and send this same file it ends up there but with permissions 644. is there away of setting this up so that you always send the file as 664...without having chmod everytime? cheers
