Fedora seems to fix this by setting a hard coded umask into the source code. Is this an approach we want to take?
It looks as if ntop only insists on creating global writable logs if the option -d (--daemon) is used. Runnong non-daemonized it obeys umask settings just fine. I experienced the exact same behavior while downloading the latest version from SVN. @Jamie: While you were in contact with upstream, did they give you a ticket number for this issue? I can't seem to find any in their Trac. -- access.log is owned by root and has write permissions to anyone https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/325393 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
