UMASK, Virtualmin, WordPress and Ubuntu 12.04

Question

I've deployed a new VPS with DigitalOcean. It's a standard LAMP stack and I'm testing a WordPress installation after creating a new "Virtual Server" in Virtualmin but it's UMASK is 022 and I need it to be 002.

So I updated /etc/login.defs line 151 and restarted Apache and then created a new Virtual server but it didn't respect the UMASK as I anticipated. Am I missing something?

Does this help? http://stackoverflow.com/questions/428416/setting-the-umask-of-the-apache-user — arco444, Jan 31 '14 at 00:19
Thanks, I'll respond to this when I've had a chance to try it again. — Spencer Hill, Feb 05 '14 at 18:19

Have you tried going here logging into Virtualmin and then to Webmin.

Webmin > Servers > ProFTPD Server > Edit Config Files

And change the UMASK there inside the file from 022 to 002?
