I'm wondering why /etc/cron.d differs in readable for all realted to all others : tfoerste@n22 ~ $ ls -ld /etc/cron* drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Sep 12 2008 /etc/cron.d drwxr-x--- 2 root root 4096 Feb 18 17:55 /etc/cron.daily -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 220 Oct 20 11:05 /etc/cron.deny drwxr-x--- 2 root root 4096 Aug 11 2008 /etc/cron.hourly drwxr-x--- 2 root root 4096 Jan 17 10:24 /etc/cron.monthly drwxr-x--- 2 root root 4096 May 27 2007 /etc/cron.weekly -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 616 Oct 20 11:05 /etc/crontab Reproducible: Always
This is a Gentoo quirk. It is sys-process/cronbase that strays from the norm by setting mode 0750 for the directories that it manages.
