well, thx to u for this great soft !
I made a first, trivial, successful integration in no time after having
fixed this rights issue. Now I've printed the docs... ;o)

For info, when restarting kolab, the permissions are set back to 640 for the
session_vars.php file :

Great!
Thanks for the patience with us!
