Re: dir perm on /var/cfengine keeps getting reset to 755

[stucky]

ok I understand that although if you say cfagent protects the permissions from regular users then why does it complain if I set /var/cfengine to 700 ? In fact, cfagent opens them up again by setting them to 755. I'd understand if the exact opposite was the case. Anyways this still doesn't explain why my /etc/hosts file keeps getting set to 600 before getting set back to 644.
That's the real mystery.

No - cfagent itself controls these permissions at invocation time. It
then complains if they
are inadequate to protect the config from regular users.
