[TriLUG] USB Palm under linux

Quick Question about setting up a palm device under linux.  First off
after a lot of time and RTFM I've got it working.  My question is more
procedural.  Pilot-Link and GPilot work fine under RH 9 as root.  To get
it to work as a user I changed the permissions on a file:

chmod 666 /dev/ttyUSB1

Is this a bad idea?  If it is what do I do instead?

Thanks,

Joshua
