OS: sunos/solaris
Submission from: 130-127-135-138.wireless.clemson.edu (130.127.135.138)

The install target on the makefile is doing "chmod 0711" when it installs files.
This has happened on the last two installations.

Thanks,

The install target on the makefile is doing "chmod 0711" when it
installs files.

No, it doesn't do any chmods. It's probably the umask value for the
root user that causes these bizarre permissions to be set. Make sure
to do "umask 022" before "make install", as mentioned in the
installation instructions.

Probably a umask issue.
