yes, the permissions are  ok

selinux is disabeld/not running

.. already test it, hobbit/xymon can run md5sum and got a result

[bird037] ~ $ whoami
hobbit
[bird037] ~ $ sha1sum /usr/local/etc/post_install
1ad7bc5d363dd6896f3f893402c93fb96d6fed69  /usr/local/etc/post_install
[bird037] ~ $ md5sum /usr/local/etc/post_install
5a6bdac94e99d42723303330b50cc5ba  /usr/local/etc/post_install
[bird037] ~ $

Yep, that i'm testing in this moment, but unfortunatley got the same 
result :-(

Alert with: 
red /usr/local/etc/post_install
File has MD5 hash (No MD5 data)  - should be 5a6bdac94e99d42723303330b50cc5ba
File has SHA1 hash (No SHA1 data)  - should be 1ad7bc5d363dd6896f3f893402c93fb96d6fed69
