Root owned configuration files
******************************

In an effort to increase the security of the Open OnDemand platform,
the system will now start to only respond to root owned configuration
files.

This will mean that all configfuration files in ``/etc/ood/config``
will need to be owned by the ``root`` user (uid 0) in order to be used.

While these files need to be root owned, they can continue to have any
group ownership.
