This is an urgent message for all 9.1 users. Please back out of
the 24mdk kernel update and downgrade to 18mdk or 13mdk as soon as
you are able. A problem exists in all kernels (except
kernel-secure) where newly created files are created mode 0666
(world writeable) on any filesystem other than XFS, including
remote NFS mounts.
We are working hard to attempt to get this problem corrected
with new kernels available in the next 24-48hrs.
Thank you.
