Thanks Nathan,

I'll make the suggested changes and do some testing over the weekend.

I had 775 originally, but qa test 023 (probably among others) was still 
failing. It starts pmcd in the foreground as the user running the test 
(brolley in my case). This resulted in EACCESS when pmcd attempted to 
bind to the socket. The bind(3) man page told me that write access to 
the directory is required. Changing it to 777 fixed the problem.
