Certainly permissions of 600 is correct; but I wonder about the ownership -=
 my
file says :

-rw-------=A0=A0 1 uucp=A0=A0=A0=A0 uucp=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0 602 Apr=
=A0 9 13:01 hosts

I know that the fax and uucp users share the same UID, so it may not make a=
=20
difference - but it's worth a try.
