Hello,

  From what I can tell, it is common to have local.cf permissions/ownership as

root:root 644 (rw-r--r--)

  But I have some database passwords (bayes, awl) in that file and
would like NOT to have world read permissions on that file.

  I'm not entirely sure what process reads that file and what user
that process runs as, so I hope that's an easy question you can answer
for me.  Is there any ownership or permissions combination that is
more restrictive than the above?  Does it really need to be world
readable?

Thank you!
