Full Discussion: File Permissions change date
Operating Systems Solaris File Permissions change date Post 70040 by kpatel on Monday 25th of April 2005 12:14:54 PM

Thanks for the reply but, it still does not tell me when a particular file/directory's permissions were changed. I guess, what I am trying to find out is the date/time when the file permissions of a particular file(s) were mangled.

Thanks again.

NAME
pam_console_apply - set or revoke permissions for users at the system console SYNOPSIS
pam_console_apply [-r] DESCRIPTION
pam_console_apply sets or resets permissions on devices in the same manner as pam_console. If /var/run/console.lock exists, pam_console_apply will grant permissions to the user listed therein. If the lock file does not exist, permissions are reset to those listed in /etc/security/console.perms, which should be configured to set permissions on devices so that root owns them. ARGUMENTS
-r Signals pam_console_apply to reset permissions. The default is to set permissions so that the user listed in /var/run/console.lock has access to the devices, and to reset permissions if no such file exists. FILES
/var/run/console.lock /etc/security/console.perms SEE ALSO
