Hi Jeremy,

I noticed that most all of the files in my old /etc/rc.d had 555
permissions.  There were 4 or 5 that had 644 permissions in my old
/etc/rc.d.  What I am wondering is if all the files in rc.d should be
555?  So far I am not experiencing any problems with anything with a
very few 644 files.

Thanks,  Rob.
