In the daily security run I see the following:



Checking setuid files and devices:

Checking negative group permissions:
3791965 -rwxr--r-x  1 admin  wheel  172 Mar  9 10:59:55 2011
  /usr/home/admin/bin/noip_update.sh


Is it just a reminder that the group has no x permissions or should I 
give those permissions?

Thanks
