Hi folks, In what is seemingly the holy grail of Unixish file permissions, I'd like to allow append only to the user's logs. I see that not only is there no screenrc setting for logfile mask or permissions, but screen is smart enough to create a new file handle to the filename when the filename is removed by another process. The latter makes it quite difficult to "set and forget" with a tricky chmod or ACL. I'm wondering if and how others have attacked this problem.
I could start hacking screen to create the file as a different user, allow the GID of the first user to write, and then use the GID sticky bit to prevent removal. But are there any other, easier ideas? I'm on HP-UX for now, and will be moving to SuSE Linux in the forseeable future. Thanks much, Judd Maltin _______________________________________________ screen-users mailing list screen-users@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/screen-users
