Mandrake 8.2 has a default security setting that leaves users' home
directories world readable.  I just read that you can enter other user's
home directories and subdirectories and read the files.  The Mandrake
msec level by default choice is Standard.  If you chmod each user's home
dir to 700, upon reboot it reverts back to what it was before.  If
setting are changed in the Mandrake Control Center from Standard to High
then users home dir is 711, 700 would be better though.  Any thoughts?
