world writable file dump in /dev/oprofile

[Paul M. <sle...@gm...>]

Dear list,

I'm fairly new to profiling with oprofile.

Our sysadmins let me know, that /dev/oprofile/dump was world writable
which our policy doesn't like. Is there a way to overwrite this
behaviour or has it changed recently?

oprofiled -v
oprofiled: oprofile 0.9.1 compiled on May  2 2006 09:57:42

Thanks,

Paul
