[gentoo-user] How to control permissions on / ?

[Jose Gonzalez Gomez]

Hi there,

Can you control permissions on /? If so, how? I've found that I have the following in two different machines:

proxy ~ # ls -ld /
d-wxr----t  19 root root 472 Nov 15 17:41 /
protos ~ # ls -ld /
drwxr-xr-x  19 root root 440 mar 10  2005 /

I've been having a permission related problem in the first machine (you can find the description in https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=116247 ) and as the guy from the Gentoo team tells, maybe it's related to this...

TIA, best regards
Jose
