adduser resulst in improper premissions on home directory



hello all ,
I have a small problem (very small) with adduser . I've set my /etc/skel
premisions as 0755 (that's the dir where th default files for a user's
home dir are) , but when I adduser the home directory of the user has
premisions of 0700 . Y is that ? how can I change that ?

Oded
btw - when I telnet to the linux box and then 'su' to be root, there are
some commands I can't run - one of them is adduser . can this behavior be
changed ? and don't flame me - no one has yet told me how my setup can be
hacked into/ sniffed at/ nuked or what ever.
