Okay, I give up. I've been struggling with a couple of very, very strange permissions problems for months. I just finished an emerge - e system and emerge -e world hoping it would fix it. first problem: trying to use sudo, but it keeps saying "can't open sudoers file, permission denied". even if i'm root doing sudo it tells me that. here is permissions on /etc/sudoers: -r--r----- 1 root root 1643 Feb 3 04:48 /etc/sudoers here is sudo itself: ---s--x--x 1 root root 97104 Feb 4 08:53 /usr/ bin/sudo

I've compared this to other, working gentoo boxes and it all seems the same. In addition, I'm trying to run MailScanner and if I try to have it run as postfix, I get a message that it can't open it's MailScanner.conf, even though i've made that owned by postfix. Not sure if that's related, but it seems it could be.
