Description ben.de.rydt 1999-11-01 14:03:09 UTC
System: RedHat Linux 6.1, upgraded from RedHat Linux 6.0.
The upgrade wasn't smooth at all (had to do it twice because
the installer crashed), so it may be a "leftover".

Comment 1 Michael K. Johnson 1999-11-22 19:09:59 UTC
pty permissions are normally set when allocated.
