Issue #4192 has been updated by Todd Zullinger.
Perhaps. I was thinking of an install-time option instead of runtime because it seems like a once and done sort of thing. That, and if it's needed in a config file, it makes updating rpm packages a little funny, since anyone that has modified the stock config won't get the the updated config option automatically. We could add it manually to the puppet command line in the init script in that case, but that feels wrong. (I've got no problem continuing to patch the defaults in the Fedora/EPEL packages. Just figure that if we can come up with a solution that works for more distros/systems/users, all the better.) ---------------------------------------- Bug #4192: Puppet changes permissions on /var/run, causing security spam every night from OpenBSD http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/4192 Author: Joe McDonagh Status: Investigating Priority: Normal Assigned to: Matt Robinson Category: Target version: Statler Affected version: 0.25.4 Keywords: Branch: Puppet wants /var/run to be mod 1777 on OpenBSD, but it's mod 755: <pre> debug: /File[/var/run]: Changing mode debug: /File[/var/run]: 1 change(s) debug: /File[/var/run]/mode: mode changed '755' to '1777' </pre> I'm not really certain why puppet cares about that folder's permissions. Someone on IRC claimed this didn't happen on Linux, however on my Linux boxes my /var/run is mod 1777. The end result of this is that the security reports from OpenBSD come in every night, when they should only be coming in when there is a security problem. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
