Best practice to allow 3rd party app to read messages file.

What is the best practice to allow a 3rd party health monitoring app to read the messages file. Since messages is a system file and is owned by root the app cannot read the file.

LM-PROFILER.CONF(8)					      System Manager's Manual					       LM-PROFILER.CONF(8)

NAME

       /etc/laptop-mode/lm-profiler.conf - Configuration file for lm-profiler, a profiler for laptop-mode-tools.

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual  page documents the options that can be set in the /etc/laptop-mode/lm-profiler.conf configuration file.  For a description of
       what lm-profiler does, see the lm-profiler(8) manpage.

SETTINGS

       The syntax of options is OPTION=value.

       The following settings are available in lm-profiler.conf:

       VERBOSE_OUTPUT
		 Set this to 1 if you want to see a lot of output when you run lm-profiler, and 0 if you don't want  this.  Useful  for  debugging
		 purposes. (Currently does nothing.)

       PROFILE_RUN_LENGTH
		 The length of a profiling run, in seconds. This should be a while, so that lm-profiler can gather enough information. The default
		 is 10 minutes (600 seconds).

       ACTIVITY_INTERVAL_MIN

       ACTIVITY_INTERVAL_MAX
		 The behaviour that you want to avoid when you have your hard drive spun down, is disk accesses that are  spread  out  over  time,
		 because  your	hard  drive will have to spin up for each access. lm-profiler detects when applications perform disk accesses that
		 are at least some time apart (otherwise they can be considered part of the same access) but not TOO far apart (otherwise they are
		 no problem). These settings configure what lm-profiler considers "at least some time apart" and "too far apart", respectively, in
		 seconds.

       RECOMMEND_DEFAULT_SERVICES

       DEFAULT_SERVICES
		 If RECOMMEND_DEFAULT_SERVICES is set to 1 (enabled), then lm-profiler will always suggest turning  off  the  services	listed	in
		 DEFAULT_SERVICES (separated by spaces).

       IGNORE_PROGRAMS
		 Programs listed in this option, separated by spaces, will be ignored for disk activity profiling. The default settings (which can
		 be referenced as $DEF_IGNORE_PROGRAMS) include common utility programs and all programs used by lm-profiler itself.

       RECOMMEND_NETWORK_SERVICES
		 When this option is enabled (value 1), lm-profiler will detect any services that are listening on network ports, and it will sug-
		 gest that you disable them.

       IGNORE_NETWORK_SERVICES
		 Services  listed  in  this  configuration option (separated by spaces) are not suggested as a network service by lm-profiler. The
		 default values can be accessed as $DEF_IGNORE_NETWORK_SERVICES.
