quick question:

My permissions on my /var/vpopmail/bin/ directory seem to have come out like this:
Code:
...
-rwx--x--x    1 vpopmail vpopmail    59664 Dec 18 12:31 vqmaillocal
-rwx--x--x    1 vpopmail vpopmail    51568 Dec 18 12:31 vsetuserquota
-rwx--x--x    1 vpopmail vpopmail    63780 Dec 18 12:31 vuserinfo

Meaning that all users can call vuserinfo and find out everyone's password. Not a great security feature!

Is it safe to "chmod 0750 *" ?
