[bf1942] chown on start?

[Casey Zacek]

Oh, you meant chmod, not chown, then...

Have you tried just setting the umask to 002?

I wouldn't think that bf1942_lnxded would purposefully change
permissions from the default, so just doing a 'umask 002' before
starting it should have the desired effect.

Let me know what happens
