Hi, I recently stumbled upon the default world readable permissons of /root and /etc/sysctl.conf. I think that it would be more secure to reduce the default permission for /root to 0700 and to 0600 for /etc/sysctl.conf. I prepared a differtial for the proposed change: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D23392 What do you think? Best regards, Gordon
