I'm having an issue where a setuid program (sendmail) (that is owned by root),is creating files that are owned by root. I want to overcome this issue; as I need the files to be owned by the user rather than root.
I believe it is an permission issue, of the mounts the local disk or the NFS home directory. The mount point of the local disk (spool area where the files are being created), is 755 and owned by root. The directory into which the files themselves are being written are owned by the user. I figure I must be forgetting something simple about permissions, and mounts and thought I would toss it out -- to the list to see if I'm overlooking something obvious. (The NFS server is a Netapp Filer, the clients are Linux servers...So it has some association with linux although small :-) -- TriLUG mailing list : http://www.trilug.org/mailman/listinfo/trilug TriLUG Organizational FAQ : http://trilug.org/faq/ TriLUG Member Services FAQ : http://members.trilug.org/services_faq/ TriLUG PGP Keyring : http://trilug.org/~chrish/trilug.asc
