A program glitch could touch it. You might overwrite it by accident yourself, typing in 'put' instead of 'site exec'. Or any of a thousand things we'd never think of because they don't happen to files which aren't set 777.

In all cases, 'permission denied' is what you'd rather the system do, instead of allowing it to be filled with garbage.

777 is not the magic sledgehammer to solve all problems. Like a real sledgehammer, it makes giant holes.
I do not want any warnings from you about any risk, I know about the risk.
I want a solution for my problem

SYNOPSIS

       ftprestart [-V]

DESCRIPTION

       Use the ftprestart command to restart an FTP Server previously shut down by means of ftpshut(1M). The ftprestart command reads the shutdown
       capability from the ftpaccess(4) file to determine the path of the shutdown message files. It then reenables the FTP Server by removing any
       shutdown message files in the anonymous and virtual FTP Server area, as well as the system wide shutdown message file.

OPTIONS

       The ftprestart command supports the following options:

       -V       Display program copyright and version information, then terminate.

EXAMPLES

       Example 1: Sample Output from ftprestart

       example% ftprestart
       ftprestart: /export/home/ftp/etc/ftpd/shutdown.msg removed.
       ftprestart: /export/home/virtual1/etc/ftpd/shutdown.msg removed.
       ftprestart: /etc/ftpd/shutdown.msg removed.

EXIT STATUS

       The following exit values are returned:

       0        Successful completion.

       >0       An error occurred.
