On the wu-ftpd side, it's a feature - if /etc/shells is world writable, we'd 
rather lock everyone out than letting everyone logging in.

/etc/shells being created with the wrong permissions is definitely not a 
wu-ftpd problem, I presume anaconda sets the wrong umask.




Comment 2 Brent Fox 2001-05-21 19:45:42 UTC
I just did a full install of Seawolf and anaconda writes out the correct
permissions for /etc/shells.

-rw-r--r--    1 root     root           84 May  24 13:50 /etc/shells

Comment 3 Brent Fox 2001-05-21 20:30:03 UTC
Oh, you were using the SBE.  I just heard from other developers that this bug
was introduced sometime between Seawolf and qa0511, but this has been fixed in
the past few days.
