How to set permission mode on unix socket in --rpclisten=

[dpc]

I'm using --rpclisten=unix://...but would like to give access to it to other users, however it seems like it's only writeable by the owner user:

srwxr-xr-x 1 lnd lnd 0 Mar 17 17:43 /var/lib/lnd/rpc

so lncli is getting permission error when trying to connect to it.

After I used chmod ugo+w /var/lib/lnd/rpc everything is working again.

I guess I'm looking for something like --rpc-file-mode from https://lightning.readthedocs.io/lightningd-config.5.html

It sounds like we would need to add such a flag as well and call os.Chmod() explicitly after creating the socket: golang/go#11822

As a workaround you could use lndinit wait-ready and then chmod the socket yourself:

lndinit wait-ready && chmod 777 /var/lib/lnd/rpc

Can you create a feature request for the --rpc-file-mode equivalent flag please?
