Yes, this is likely the case btw:
```
omer(at)omer:/media/omer/My Book/ris/postgres_data$ ls -al postgresql.conf
-rwxrwxrwx 1 omer omer 23902 May 16 11:06 postgresql.conf
omer(at)omer:/media/omer/My Book/ris/postgres_data$ chmod u=rwx,g=rx,o=
postgresql.conf
omer(at)omer:/media/omer/My Book/ris/postgres_data$ echo $?
0
omer(at)omer:/media/omer/My Book/ris/postgres_data$ ls -al postgresql.conf
-rwxrwxrwx 1 omer omer 23902 May 16 11:06 postgresql.conf
```
Best,
Omer
