> + if (!chmod(pg_data,0700)) Out of curiosity, what was the rationale for using 0700? I know it was a pain for me when I had a script to monitor the tmp usage. Surely read access to privileged users isn't really a problem? I'm thinking more of loosening the paranoia check elsewhere rather than this default.
Wouldn't at least 0750 be safe? That way putting a user in the postgres group would grant him access to be able to browse around and read the files in pg_data. Actually I should think 02750 would be better so that the group is inherited by subdirectories. -- greg ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
