Re: wwwofflebook design

Well, for the purge.conf here it's still rw-rw-r-- (proxy.proxy) 
after editing with the control interface.
What was the default, then ?
In this particular case, i would be lucky if only the purge.conf would be group writable, 
to let a mechanism like 'wwwofflebook'  work.
Of course i can  set the script into /etc/sudoers, but who knows the next security glitch then.
