a quickie re. /etc/passwd

Hi,
On ux11i... what should the permissions be on the etc/passwd and /etc/group files (and the owner and group)?

Thanks
Maria

Re: a quickie re. /etc/passwd

-r--r--r-- 1 root sys 1251 Apr 16 01:07 /etc/passwd

-r--r--r-- 1 bin bin 251 Apr 16 01:07 /etc/group

Anything else, big trouble.

Second vote for that:

# ll /etc/passwd
-r--r--r-- 1 root sys 34848 Jul 19 15:32 /etc/passwd
#
# ll /etc/group
-r--r--r-- 1 bin bin 1130 Jul 19 09:56 /etc/group
Anyone for a Mutiny ?
