Hi, i just installed a Slackware-7.1 and hardening it after a
find / -perm -2 -type -f
I found this two bad thing:

123655    1 -rw-rw-rw-   1 root     root          744 Sep 21 22:52
/usr/info/dir
153123    1 -rw-rw-rw-   1 root     root           49 Sep 21 22:51
/etc/shells


Does someone may verify it on other slackware-7.1 distribution?
