For anyone who doesn't remember this thread of a few days ago, I had some log files whose permissions were being randomly changed to 600 (after I set them to 644). Ths was happening several times a day.
OK - there's a new application in the Mandrake 9.0 Control Panel called drakperm. It handles permissions on groups of files and /var/log/* was set to 600. I found that you can set user defined rules to over-ride whatever you need to, so I added a rule to set /var/log/mylogs/* to 644 and I haven't had any problems for a few days now. I didn't find any documentation for this on GOOGLE or any of the Mandrake sites - MandrakeUser or MandakeExpert. There is only a screen shot of the application on the main Mandrake site.
