[H-GEN] syslog

Another question.

I've noticed that normal users (ie: not root) have read access to my
logfiles in /var/log and so can see the results of my chatscript which
contains my password.

I've only just installed Debian so this must be default, and it was the same
with my Slackware setup.

Obvious question, how do I permanently remove read access from all but root
?

John.

btw : Chris, thanks for the hint with setleds,
