Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Awez 2017-01-18 05:49:29 UTC
Description of problem: 


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

rhel6.x
at-3.1.10-48.el6.x86_64


How reproducible:
                 easily, see below


Steps to Reproduce:

1. Check /var/spool/at and /var/spool/at/spool directory ownership



Actual results:

 [root@srv2-rhel6 ~]# ls -ld /var/spool/at 
 drwx------. 3 daemon daemon 29 May 23  2016 /var/spool/at

 [root@srv2-rhel6 ~]# ls -ld /var/spool/at/spool 
 drwx------. 2 daemon daemon 6 May 23  2016 /var/spool/at/spool

 [root@srv2-rhel6 ~]# man atd
 ...
 FILES
        /var/spool/at The directory for storing jobs; this should be mode 700, owner root.

        /var/spool/at/spool The directory for storing output; this should be mode 700, owner root.
 ...




Expected results:

man page entry should be corrected.
 /var/spool/at and /var/spool/at/spool owner should be 'daemon' not 'root'


Additional info:

 [root@srv2-rhel6 ~]# rpm -q --scripts -f /var/spool/at/
 postinstall scriptlet (using /bin/sh):
 touch /var/spool/at/.SEQ
 chmod 600 /var/spool/at/.SEQ
 chown daemon:daemon /var/spool/at/.SEQ                        <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< 
 # must be in chkconfig on
 /sbin/chkconfig --add atd
 preuninstall scriptlet (using /bin/sh):
 if [ "$1" = "0" ] ; then
	 /sbin/service atd stop >/dev/null 2>&1 ||:
 	 /sbin/chkconfig --del atd
 fi
 postuninstall scriptlet (using /bin/sh):
 if [ "$1" -ge "1" ]; then
	 /sbin/service atd condrestart >/dev/null 2>&1 ||:
 fi


script is changing the ownership.
