Hello all.
I don't know if this has been discussed before -- if it has, please
point me at the applicable messages. I couldn't find anything about it
in the CVS history, so I assume no one has ever brought it up.
I just started using rotatelogs from src/support, and noticed that it
does its open() with initial file permissions for the logs set to 0666.
Why is that? I'd have assumed it would be 0644. I changed mine to 0644
in the source and recompiled and it works fine... <shrug> As far as I
can tell, it's been 0666 ever since rotatelogs was introduced.
Thoughts?
