serverlog ownership



Hi,

I want to cat /dev/null > serverlog every night (after the backup is done) so that this file keep a small size. Now, this file is owned by "root" and the backup is done by the user "postgres". I want to change the permissions so that :

	-rw-r--r--  1 root     root      43M Jun 18 09:16 serverlog

become :

	-rw-rw-r--  1 root     postgres      43M Jun 18 09:16 serverlog

Does postmaster will complain about the new permissions or it's ok to do that ?
