Description Gilberto De Faveri 2004-06-09 06:48:19 UTC
After upgrading to udev 026-r1, that changed default_mode in /etc/udev/udev.conf from 0666 to 0660 I'm not able to use ssh from a normal user.

This is due to the owner of /dev/tty, which is root:root:0600

I solved the problem adding this line

tty:root:tty:0660

to my /etc/udev/permissions.d/50-udev.permissions

and making my user a member of the tty group
