After an unfortunate mishap with an encryption key, I have started to rebuild my harddisk. And making sure I have a good backup :(I noticed a problem with the file permissions for /usr/sbin/ssh-keysign.exe: $ getfacl.exe /usr/sbin/ssh-keysign.exe # file: /usr/sbin/ssh-keysign.exe # owner: andersej # group: Domain Users user::rwx group::--x other:--x For some reason, the Windows-based backup program (Seagate Manager) wants the Windows group "Everyone" to have read access. Otherwise it will report: ERROR >>> C:\cygwin64\usr\sbin\ssh-keysign.exe Access denied
This looks a mistake of the backup program. What Security is in place if Everyone has read access ?
Is there some special reason for denying everyone read permission (o+r) to this file? PS: I have the same problem with /etc/rebase.db.x86_64 which only have 660 permissions. Regards,
