Package: fcron Version: 3.0.1-1 Severity: normal I want to have a second fcron process on my system for which all users may have fcrontabs, just like the main one. The catch-22 is that if the alternative conf file is world readable, fcron[tab] refuses to run, and if it isn't, then a user can't do 'fcrontab -c fcron-alt.conf -e', so how can an ordinary user manipulate a crontab for the alternate fcron instance?
Why is the permission requirement so strict anyway? Regular cron doesn't seem to care about world readability? -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.22-lizzie Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages fcron depends on: ii adduser 3.105 add and remove users and groups ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.14 Debian configuration management sy ii dpkg 1.14.7 package maintenance system for Deb ii exim4 4.68-1 meta-package to ease Exim MTA (v4) ii exim4-daemon-light [mail-tra 4.68-1 lightweight Exim MTA (v4) daemon ii libc6 2.6.1-5 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libpam-runtime 0.99.7.1-5 Runtime support for the PAM librar ii libpam0g 0.99.7.1-5 Pluggable Authentication Modules l ii libselinux1 2.0.15-2+b1 SELinux shared libraries Versions of packages fcron recommends: ii sysklogd [system-log-daemon] 1.5-1 System Logging Daemon -- debconf information: * fcron/anacronwarn: -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
