[opensuse-factory] sudoers file permissions
Hi, Anybody know if the file permission change on /etc/sudoers from 0640 to 0440 is intentional? - I am syncing /etc/sudoers between multible SuSE boxes using rdist over ssh and on my 10.3/Factory box sudo started complaining. - For the time being I have a cronjob on that box that resets the permissions but it is kind of annoying.

Most likely 0440 is right. With Apple OS X (10.4.10) comes utility Disk Utility, that has a tool "Repair Disk Permissions". If I change /etc/sudoers to 0640, the tool changes it back to 0440. -- Arto Viitanen --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

Hi Hubertus! I maintain sudo package and the change was intentional. Upstream default permission is 0440 - see http://sudo.ws/sudo/changes.html (point 202)). - -- Best Regards / S pozdravom, Pavol RUSNAK SUSE LINUX, s.r.o Package Maintainer Lihovarska 1060/12 PGP 0xA6917144 19000 Praha 9, CR prusnak[at]suse.cz http://www.suse.cz -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with SUSE - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFGlKx1ASE5C6aRcUQRAvMcAKCCf8tyVDYhBy92oPfuYdg+1PVE0QCfTo01 JvG3/dgCQpyPNzVk9rQMRCM= =tjos -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
