Ethan, That question is really for the previous webrev (i.e., the 000 permission CR). But .... I can change it to root/root. I thought that webservd/webservd was a fine ownership since it is used by the webserver. I did not realize that it was also used by tftpd. Actually, I did but didn't think about it I guess.
I can also change the ownership if you like. I wanted to limit the exposure hence the permission and ownership settings. root/root and 555 is fine too. It just means more changes.
