Dave,
Isn't it just because of the link?

Subject: Prot on jre file
Folks,
Anyone know what the necessary protection should be on the following Java
file under unix?
% ls -l /u01/app/oracle/jre/1.1.8/bin/jre
-rwxrwxrwx 1 oracle dba 2097 Dec 31 1969
/u01/app/oracle/jre/1.1.8/bin/jre
As you can see from above, the file has world-write access, which seems
rather odd. I compared this to 7 other installs and all had the same prots,
which to me means the installation process is setting this. Our security
admin wants this changed, yet I'm paranoid that dropping prots will cause
problems.
Anyone know how/why this file is set to 777?
