Hi,
ntpd creates the shm refclock segments 2 and 3 with permissions 0666
(previously 0777), allowing also non-root users to provide synchronisation
data when these segments are set up. The attached patch changes chrony to
do that to (currently 0700 for all segments). It also changes the
permissions from 7 to 6, i.e. removing the useless execute-bits.
Cheers,
Håkan
