I need my newly created log files to have a permissions mode of 644 (or 640
even), but they are always made as 600

I have tried setting the umask for root in .bashrc and also tried these
settings in /etc/rsyslog.conf

[code:37jbsmpn]$FileOwner root
$FileCreateMode 0644
$DirCreateMode 0755[/code:37jbsmpn]


but sure enough, when the log rotates the new file is 600 and my
applications can't read it.

I tried to add a line to the rotate script to change the permissions, but
it seems like the new file isn't created until after the script finishes
because it has no effect.
