Hi,
the program that does the security checks each night keeps finding the
devfs files:

Security Warning: World Writeable files found :
                - /lib/dev-state/console
                - /lib/dev-state/ttyp0
                - /lib/dev-state/ttyp1
                - /lib/dev-state/ttyp2
                - /lib/dev-state/ttyp3
                - /lib/dev-state/ttyp4
                - /lib/dev-state/ttyp5
                - /lib/dev-state/ttyp6
                - /lib/dev-state/ttyp7
                - /lib/dev-state/ttyp8
                - /lib/dev-state/ttyp9
                - /lib/dev-state/ttypa
                - /lib/dev-state/ttypb
                - /lib/dev-state/ttypc

etc etc

There are also the postfix mailboxs.  Is it safe to remove the world
writable flag from these.  Also the postfix files, from memory, cause
problems when their world/write flag is changed - is there a simple
workaraound?
