I set my file permissions in the format of "rwxr-xr-x" or 0777, etc. Once and for all, what should the permissions be for the "default" directory and the settings.php file after the installation is complete? Is it the same for D6 as for D7?
Thanks.

Drupal by default will set the appropriate permissions on the initial install.

Default:
settings.php 444
default directory 555

Something to consider, but this doesn't prove to be 100% accurate all the time (this does not fix the issues). If able, give it a read prior to test driving: http://drupal.org/project/security_review . It will run a check and give results.

D7/D6 are the same for the default directory and settings.php
