individual umask in sftp/scp

For HPUX (at least some of the 11.31 versions) the following can be used in sshd_config to set the umask for individual users or groups:
Add the following two lines at the end of the file to configure the sftp umask for a group of users.

Match Group  <group name>
ForceCommand  internal-sftp  -u 73

Or, add the following two lines at the end of the file to configure the sftp umask for a single user.

Match User   <user name>
ForceCommand  internal-sftp -u 73
of course you'll need to restart ssh by doing:  kill -HUP $(cat /var/run/sshd.pid)   or /sbin/init.d/secsh stop ;  /sbin/init.d/secsh start
