[Devmon] umask causes world-writeable files (patch)

[Jeremy L. <jla...@re...>]

Hi

The file dm_config.pm has "umask 0" in there.  The effect of this is
that all log files and the pid file get created as world-writeable,
which isn't very good IMHO.  In my installation, I commented out that
line.  Please let me know if this was the wrong thing to do, and
otherwise, I suggest this be put into the code.

The perldoc page on umask seems to suggest NOT using umask, and
instead using creation modes in sysopen, and leaving policy decisions
(umask) to the user (which would be the start-up/init script in this
case).

Cheers
Jeremy
