NetBSD shuttle.babafou.eu.org 6.1 NetBSD 6.1 (GENERIC) amd64
>Description:
After a default NetBSD installation, the permissions of files /root/.cshrc and
/root/.profile (which are 555) make /etc/security (which expects 644) complain:
Checking special files and directories.
root/.cshrc:
permissions (0644, 0555)
root/.profile:
permissions (0644, 0555)
>How-To-Repeat:
Just install a brand new NetBSD ;-)
>Fix:
For shell configuration files, 644 makes way more sense than 555 so
/etc/security is right so the permissions of /root/.cshrc and /root/.profile
should be changed to 644 in the installation media.
