WARNING: unsafe ownership on homedir `/m/a/etc/naclient/ppcbackup

[Josef Wolf]

Hello,

I am wondering what this error message

   WARNING: unsafe ownership on homedir `/usr/local/etc/backup'

is trying to tell me.

This directory is owned by root:myself and has mode 750.  So it is
writable only by root and readable only by myself and by root.
AFAICS, it is as safe as it can get.  Do I really have to remove
access for _root_?  How do I do that?

I can see the necessity of such a warning if the directory is writable
by some arbitrary user.  But isn't root somewhat special?

Just wondering...
