I've had problems with procmail logs and their permissions: I am using procmail + qmail + vmailmgr based virtual domains where one system user (in my case vmail1) owns the directory structure for one mail domain and it's users. My problem: All users owning the virtual domains (including vmail1) belong to procmail group, but still they cannot write to procmail log files even though the procmail process is ran by those users. I hope someone could help me out here, it propably is a trivial error on my side that I just don't see. I've created /var/log/procmail and group called procmail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] test]# ls -lah /var/log/procmail/ total 8.0k drwxrwxr-x 2 root procmail 4.0k Jul 28 17:14 . drwxr-xr-x 16 root root 4.0k Jul 28 16:21 .. User vmail1 owns the first virtual domain. User vmail1 also belongs to the procmail group and can write to the directory: [EMAIL PROTECTED] test]# groups vmail1 vmail1 : vmail1 procmail [EMAIL PROTECTED] test]# su - vmail1 -c "touch /var/log/procmail/foo" [EMAIL PROTECTED] test]# ls /var/log/procmail/ foo A virtual user in the virtual domain owned by vmail1 has these logging directives in her .procmailrc: SHELL=/bin/sh USER=test DOMAIN=mail1.dev LOGFILE=/var/log/procmail/$DOMAIN-$USER.log LOGABSTRACT="all" VERBOSE="on" But when receiving messages for this user I see in /var/log/maillog this: Jul 28 17:03:52 muroa procmail[2142]: Error while writing to "/var/log/procmail/mail1.dev-test.log" If I give everyone (or just the vmail1 user) write access to /var/log/procmail, logging works as expected. What am I missing here? Regards, Peter -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
