Name here is Scott. I just installed Smartlist a few days ago. I am having trouble accessing the .bin and also the .etc directories for Smartlist. I am wondering if any one can tell me what to chown them to and chgrp and chmod them too. Thanks for the help.
You can chmod 2755 /var/list if you want to access such directory as an ordinary user, but the upstream package has this directory as rwx--s--x and the Debian package respect that. You are only supposed to manipulate SmartList files there as the "list" user, really, so become root and then "su list". An umask of 002 so that files are automatically writable by group list would be recommended too.
