This dir should belong to the user that you run multilog with,
ie. if your multilog run script looks like this

 #!/bin/sh
 setuidgid loguser multilog t ./main

the dir should belong to user "loguser".

as above they should all be owned by "loguser" and permissions should be (at
least) u+rwx for the directory (*), files all 744 with the exception of
current and state (644) and lock (600).

When you start with a clean "main"-dir, the files that are created will have
the right permissions.

/B.

(*) other permissions depending on who shall be able to read the logfiles
