    While working with the commercial version of Arkeia backup software I
    noticed it creates most of it's "database" files with the permissions of
    666.  This was version 4.2.8-2 of the server, and I had noticed this several
    updates ago, so it's been going on for some time.  The database files are
    located in /usr/knox/arkeia/dbase.  I have tried resetting the permissions
    on the files, but they get reset again when backup runs again.  I tried
    contacting Knox Software but was told more than once that basically I don't
    have a support contract so they wouldn't talk to me - they were warned.  I
    wasn't able to find anything about this in their documentation.
