Where do you set permissions?

User permissions on the application itself?

I've come across a situation in the past where running a compact and repair
on a database ended up with RW permissions for the admin account that it was
done by, but RO rights for all other users.  I had to  re-set the
permissions on the file every time  it was manually compacted.
