[App_rpt-users] archivedir permissions

[David McGough]

Hi Tom,

Currently, the file permissions are hard-coded in the stock version of 
the app_rpt.c code.  See line #22084 of app_rpt.c:

fd = open(fname,O_WRONLY | O_CREAT | O_APPEND,0600);

So, only the file owner has read/write permission.

With the stock code, using chmod (perhaps from a cron script?) is the 
simplest solution.
