How to set owner and permission for files/directory in directory in this case?
Hi.
My example:
I have a filesystem /log. Everyday, log files are copied to /log. I'd like to set owner and permission for files and directories in /log like that
Code:
chown -R log_adm /log/*
chmod -R 544 /log/*

It's OK, but just at that time. When a new log file or new directory is created in /log, it has owner and permisssion different with what I want . I don't want to execute these 2 commands above days by days to fix this.

I want every files and directories created in /log or copied to /log have owner: log_adm and permission:544. Is it possible. If yes, how ???

Thanks for read

nislog

nislog(1M)						  System Administration Commands						nislog(1M)

NAME

       nislog - display the contents of the NIS+ transaction log

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/sbin/nislog [-h num | -t num]  [-v] [directory...]

DESCRIPTION

       nislog  displays  the  contents of the NIS+ server transaction log on the standard output. This command can be used to track changes in the
       namespace. The /var/nis/trans.log file contains the transaction log maintained by the NIS+ server. When updates occur, they are	logged	to
       this  file  and	then  propagated  to replicas as log transactions.  When the log is checkpointed, updates that have been propagated to the
       replicas are removed.

       The nislog command can only be run on an NIS+ server by superuser. It displays the log entries for that server only.

       If directory is not specified, the entire log is searched. Otherwise, only those logs entries that correspond to the specified  directories
       are displayed.

OPTIONS

       -h num	       Display num transactions from the ``head'' of the log. If the numeric parameter is  0, only the log header is displayed.

       -t num	       Display	num transactions from the ``tail'' of the log. If the numeric parameter is  0, only the log header is displayed.

       -v	       Verbose mode.

FILES

       /var/nis/trans.log      transaction log

       available in the Solaris 9 operating environment. For more information, visit http://www.sun.com/directory/nisplus/transition.html.
