Description Mushy Ahmed 2023-09-11 23:27:23 UTC
I try to run screen and it says:

> screen
Directory '/tmp/screen' must have mode 777.

and what is the mode:

> ls -ld /tmp/screen
drwxrwxr-x 2 root utmp 40 Sep 11 10:28 /tmp/screen/

and why? 

> cat /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/screen.conf 
d /tmp/screen 0775 root utmp

suggest changing the mode to 1777 in the tmpfiles conf file.
