[ale] Q: How do I make permissions on /dev/* 'sticky'?

[ale_nospam at fayettedigital.com (Jim Lynch)]

Maybe I'm missing something here, but it's been my experience that 
devices that might be useful to users such as ttyS* have permissions of 
660 and the group is set to something meaningful like disk or tape or 
dialout etc.  The way to permit users to access these devices is to add 
them to the dialout group, for instance.

That way you don't have to screw with the device permissions.

It's been the way my distros worked andway.
