Wrong rotate permission
Hali All,
I have a big problem. (REDHAT) I have a logrotate definition for wtmp:
/var/log/wtmp {
monthly
minsize 1M
create 0644 root utmp
rotate 9
}
There is a line for create the file with 0644 permission. If I run the definition manually it works as well, but when it should be run automatically the permission rollback to the 0664.
I dont know how does it happen

Here is the cause REDHAT: [root@ etc]# cat /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit | grep wtmp [ -f /var/run/utmpx -o -f /var/log/wtmpx ] && _NEED_XFILES=1 # Clean up utmp/wtmp touch /var/log/wtmp chgrp utmp /var/run/utmp /var/log/wtmp chmod 0664 /var/run/utmp /var/log/wtmp touch /var/log/wtmpx chgrp utmp /var/run/utmpx /var/log/wtmpx chmod 0664 /var/run/utmpx /var/log/wtmpx I'm looking for SLES servers too
