Adding an option to set world-writable permissions on the socket doesn't sound like a good idea to me. How does your application get access to the serial port? Applications like gpsd and ntp-refclock normally start with root privileges, open all devices and sockets they will need, and then switch to an unprivileged user. -- Miroslav Lichvar -- To unsubscribe email chrony-users-request-kWFZVVI9zxvPqho9SqqRMmD2FQJk+8+b@public.gmane.org with "unsubscribe" in the subject.
