Should I be concerned with this report? If so what is an easy way to correct these file permissions for this long list

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Here is interesting article concerning mandriva:
http://www.mombu.com/gnu_linux/mandr...s-3197325.html
http://mandrivausers.org/index.php?/...roblem-solved/
http://linuxgator.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=1746

As far as I can see, only Mandriva (and PCLinuxOS) has this problem. Asking on their forum would be best course of action.

Thanks for the links, I have read them and it seems like I should ignore the report but I'll post it in the correct forum to get additional feedback

I'll move this thread to the Mandriva forum, in order to keep the discussion in one place.
