I've rebuilt (went ok) and reinstalled and after moving ~/.pan2 out of the way and starting pan and adding a server I get the following permissions after pan exits -rw-r--r-- 1 robert robert 7877 Jan 27 21:15 accels.txt drwxr-xr-x 2 robert robert 4096 Jan 27 21:15 article-cache -rw------- 1 robert robert 40 Jan 27 21:15 group-preferences.xml drwxr-xr-x 2 robert robert 4096 Jan 27 21:15 groups -rw-r--r-- 1 robert robert 2441655 Jan 27 21:14 newsgroups.dsc -rw-r--r-- 1 robert robert 100 Jan 27 21:15 newsgroups.xov -rw-r--r-- 1 robert robert 106059 Jan 27 21:14 newsgroups.ynm -rw------- 1 robert robert 248 Jan 27 21:15 posting.xml -rw-r--r-- 1 robert robert 3547 Jan 27 21:15 preferences.xml -rw-r--r-- 1 robert robert 389 Jan 27 21:13 servers.xml -rw-r--r-- 1 robert robert 194 Jan 27 21:15 tasks.nzb So permissions on servers.xml aren't getting set correctly, though the permissions have changed on some files Robert _______________________________________________ Pan-users mailing list Pan-users@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/pan-users
