Description Michal Jaegermann 2011-07-24 19:30:35 UTC
Description of problem:

bind provides /etc/logrotate.d/named with the following content:

/var/named/data/named.run {
    missingok
    create 0644 named named
    postrotate
        /sbin/service named reload  2> /dev/null > /dev/null || true
    endscript
}

The current logrotate clearly dislikes that as an attempt to use the ends up with the following:

/etc/cron.daily/logrotate:

error: skipping "/var/named/data/named.run" because parent directory has insecure permissions (It's world writable or writable by group which is not "root") Set "su" directive in config file to tell logrotate which user/group should be used for rotation.

/var/named/data indeed is 'drwxrwx--- 2 named named'.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
bind-9.8.0-7.P4.fc16
logrotate-3.8.0-3.fc16

Comment 1 Michal Jaegermann 2011-08-18 19:01:28 UTC
This error still persists.  Is adding in /etc/logrotate.d/named a line which says

  su named named

a big trouble?

Comment 2 Kevin Fenzi 2011-08-28 15:38:52 UTC
I'm seeing this here too. A fix would be nice.
