You don't necessarily need to make .db's and .incs non read/write for everyone, since WebDNA protects them, but it's always good to be as secure as possible. Under these perms, group would have to be apache (or whatever your webserver is running as) to be able to write to the files, flush them, etc.. Note, make sure your admin preferences read the same permission conventions as whatever you come up with. (two fields in the admin).
