Imagine this, I ran COPS on my system, and it complained
that my permissions on /bin/ls were wrong (SuSE 5.3).  
I ran it on a RedHat (5.0) system, same thing.  I checked
the permissions on a RedHat 5.2 system - same thing.
Here it is:
[bob at molokai bob]$ ls -al /bin/ls
-rwxr-xr-x   1 root     root        29308 Aug  6  1998
/bin/ls
Interesting that ls has write permission.  Can anyone
explain why?
