daily security output usr/src should be gid = 9 = man

2006-02-17 Thread Stefan

Hi,

is this the right behaviour that /usr/src should be labeled with gid  
9 which is the group man? When I label /usr/src with the group wheel  
I get a daily security output like this:


Checking special files and directories.
Output format is:
filename:
criteria (shouldbe, reallyis)
usr/src:
gid (9, 0)

When I label it with gid 9 which is the group man I don't get a  
security hint. But why would or should I label /usr/src with group- 
privilegies man?


Is this the default behaviour? I'm running FreeBSD RELENG_6_0

Best regards,
Stefan

When you say 'label' do you mean using chown or chgrp?

My /usr/src directory is root:wheel - eg UID root,  GID wheel
on each of the FreeBSD versions I have handy to look at which
includes 6.0.

Your daily security output may just be telling you that it
changed to something from the GID of 9 that it was the last
time it checked.I don't know of any other reason it would
point that out.

I mean: chgrp wheel /usr/src

Damn your right ;-) I did a second run and everything went fine.
Now I know what went wrong. Everytime I saw this message I changed  
the group and that was the reason why I became every day this message.


Thanks for your quick response.

Best regards,
Stefan
