Product: XFree86
Component: program
Summary: /var/log/XFree86.*.log not readable by non-root user in
mdk-9.1rc2
Version: 4.3-1mdk
Platform: Other
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
This problem was not there in mdk-9.1rc1, where XFree86.0.log looked like:
-rw-r----- 1 root ndeb 33122 Mar 5 10:59 /var/log/XFree86.0.log
and was readable by the user who was running the X session.
Now, in mdk-9.1rc2, this looks like:
-rw-r----- 1 root adm 33122 Mar 5 10:59 /var/log/XFree86.0.log
and is not readable by a non-root user.
My install is minimum security ("standard"). If the kernel log (dmesg) is available to
non-root
users, what is the point of making XFree86.*.log not readable ? This should be the way
it was
in mdk-9.1rc1.
