[stork-users] Permissions to access files

Hello,

I installed stork server and stork agent on two independent servers,
for monitoring ISC kea.

On both computers, files in /etc/kea have the following
users/groups/permissions:

drwxr-x---  3 _kea _kea  4096 Jul  1 13:07 .
-rw-r-----  1 _kea _kea    33 Jun 18 15:40 kea-api-password
-rw-r-----  1 _kea _kea  5697 Jun 12 14:00 kea-ctrl-agent.conf
-rw-r-----  1 _kea _kea  2979 Jun 23 16:28 kea-dhcp4.conf
-rw-r--r--  1 _kea _kea 21098 Jun 12 14:00 kea-dhcp6.conf
-rw-r--r--  1 root root  3033 Jun 18 11:09 kea-dhcp-ddns.conf

But though these entries only differ in date and time on the two
computers, ISC stork agent works fine on one of them, while on the
other, it starts, but complains that it cannot access kea-api-password
and kea-ctrl-agent.conf (what can actually be expected with stork-agent
running as user stork-agent ...)

What is happening here?

Regards
  Christoph
