Noticed today in the middle of bootup messages that swapon is
complaining about permissions set to 1660 and were insecure. It
suggested (as I recall) 0660. I never saw this before.
How do I go about changing them ?
This bug was already reported here:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=196857
You can get rid of that annoying message by issuing following as root:
chmod 0600 /sbin/swapon
You mixed up something here, that should be the permission of *swap
files*, not of the swapon utility. But it is true that this will get
rid of the message, because no swap space is going to activated if
/sbin/swapon is not executable by anyone.
So what's the solution..and is it that important. After reading the
bug report I don't think it's all that big a deal ?
