Hello,
I try to use the option perm(0640) when creating a file. But it seems that only the default permission is used (0600). Putiing it in the global section doesn't change anything. I'm using version 1.4.15. I'm facing similiar problems with dir_perm.
umask ? -- Bazsi
Msg from Carsten Thieswald1: Hi Carsten,
Where can I change umask for syslog-ng?
you could loosen it in the script that starts syslog-ng. Even though I still feel that an explicit mode configuration in an application should result in the exact same mode on the created file or directory. Greetings, Gregor.
Carsten, I have some vague memories of similar problems with syslog-ng v1.4, but I don't have the details. I looked through the code and I think I also needed to put in the user and group before it looked like it would work. However, an easier fix I found was to upgrade to v1.5 (whatever was the latest) and it worked fine from then. Frank On Thu, 2002-11-28 at 03:04, Carsten Thieswald1 wrote:
