RE: Startmenu sorting

Talking about permissions, I copied two folders from my root account's
start menu to /usr/local/shared/afterstep/start and forgot to change the
permissions (leaving them as 744). When, as a user, I refreshed my start
menu, I was dumped out of X completely. Going back in, I found I had an
empty startmenu. OK, I've fixed the permissions but I was surprised, since
I had intended to experiment with permissions as a way of creating a menu
tree with some options/categories only visible to certain users/groups:
that's how I do it on the Netware 4.11 system at work. Well, now I don't
need to do the experiment, I suppose but I was surprised.
I'm using 1,6.6-3 on RH 5.1 with XFree86 3.3.3-1
