I am getting this message from Charlie Root over and over:
Checking mailbox ownership.
user clock mailbox is drwx------, group users
Does it mean I should change the mailbox flags or group? If yes, what are
the correct values then?
Needs to be owned by the system user, e.g:
$ ls -ld /var/mail/someone
drwx------ 9 someone users 512 Dec 20 2006 /var/mail/someone/
But, you will still get the alerts unless you patch /etc/security as
this script assumes mboxes, not maildirs. The below allows for both:
$ rcsdiff -r1.1 /etc/security
===================================================================
RCS file: /etc/RCS/security,v
retrieving revision 1.1
diff -r1.1 /etc/security
