Noticed today in the middle of bootup messages that swapon is
complaining about permissions set to 1660 and were insecure. It
suggested (as I recall) 0660. I never saw this before.
How do I go about changing them ?

This bug was already reported here:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=196857



Fix swapon to not complain about files with the sticky bit set, or fix
udev to not create device files with it.

and is it that important. After reading the
bug report I don't think it's all that big a deal ?

Surely, it's just a warning that can safely be ignored.


  Good. Thanks.
