In part, the permissions that you place on the file will depend on how
you wish to distribute the file. If you are going to link to the file
directly, then you should allow for read only and not write or execute
(744).
If you are going to use CFMX to server up the file to your users, then
all you really need to provide is enough permissions to allow CF to
access the file. As the file should be created using the same user and
group that CF is running under, something as little as 700 should do
it.
