I am just wondering whether someone else out here has faced a similar
issue or may have a solution for this.

I am launching a java program (jdk 1.5) in linux (redhat 4) and then
checking the permission of the shared memory using the following
command

ipcs -a

I am seeing a shared memory permission of 777

------ Shared Memory Segments --------
      key        shmid      owner      perms      bytes
nattch     status
0x00000000 58884100   <my user id>     777        614400
2          dest

How do I go about altering the permissions of the shared memory? Is
there any option/workaround that I should be using ?

Thanks
Sumant
