Last time the problem occured the daemon was lauched by the initscript after installing the package via apt-get as root. I don't remember doing anything to change the umask from whatever the default could be (the current umask is 0022). I think the correct approach to text file creation is to ask for "0666" mode (or stricter) and let the umask restrict it further -- no point in asking for the execute bit at file creation for a log file. Cheers, Laurent.
