[Mono-dev] FileSecurity or chmod

[Mariner, David]

Can you check System.OperatingSystem.Platform 

(http://www.go-mono.com/docs/monodoc.ashx?link=P%3aSystem.OperatingSyste
m.Platform)

then use either chmod or AccessControl depending on runtime platform.
It's a feels a little messy but it's better than having to distribute
multiple binaries, isn't it?

Hope this helps, 

Dave Mariner
