Subject: [gentoo-user] fcrontab - what am I missing?
Date: Wed, 30 Sep 2009 17:40:43 +0200 (CEST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <tkrat.45f6404ee87493f6@igpm.rwth-aachen.de> (raw)
Hi,
I've been using fcron for quite some time, but
now it behaves strange.
I have version 3.0.4-r2 installed.
Doing fcrontab -e as non-root user
I get
Could not change egid to fcron[449]: Operation not permitted
although I'm a member of group fcron.
Furthermore /etc/fcron/fcron.allow has 'all'
Even more strangely,
do - as root -
fcrontab -e USER
it lets me create a file but on closing I get
no fcrontab for jarausch - using an empty one
17:34:40 could not open file jarausch.orig.tmp: Permission denied
17:34:40 could not remove /tmp/fcr-z9FG5g: Operation not permitted
So, I'm puzzled.
Many thanks for some help,
Helmut.
