Only way I can think of is to put an intermediate script on the web
server that accepts uploads and ensures that the permissions are all
correct. But doing that instead of using scp makes automating the test
machines much harder.

And on a related note...

-bash-2.05b$ du -ks regression-logs
du: cannot change to directory `regression-logs/output': Permission denied
du: cannot change to directory `regression-logs/output2/mbergal':
Permission denied
du: cannot change to directory `regression-logs/output2/metacomm':
Permission denied
899356 regression-logs

So:

(a) it's not just that it's not world readable, it's also not readable
at all :-(

and (b) yes that's 900Meg just on the regression logs... Just *slightly*
above the 100Meg quota ;-)
