Okay, I give up. I've been struggling with a couple of very, very
strange permissions problems for months. I just finished an emerge -
e system and emerge -e world hoping it would fix it. first problem:
trying to use sudo, but it keeps saying "can't open sudoers file,
permission denied". even if i'm root doing sudo it tells me that.
here is permissions on /etc/sudoers: -r--r----- 1 root root 1643
Feb 3 04:48 /etc/sudoers
here is sudo itself: ---s--x--x 1 root root 97104 Feb 4 08:53 /usr/
bin/sudo
I've compared this to other, working gentoo boxes and it all seems
the same. In addition, I'm trying to run MailScanner and if I try to
have it run as postfix, I get a message that it can't open it's
MailScanner.conf, even though i've made that owned by postfix. Not
sure if that's related, but it seems it could be.
