I'm guessing this is not the case, but recall that root will often not be granted write access across an NFS mount. So if your /etc happened to be NFS mounted this might cause a problem. I had a similar occurrence of this error message while helping a friend tune his SA set up in his own user directory. spamassassin --lint gave the same diagnostic, but the perms looked fine. Eventually, I just rm'd the bayes files, retrained them on a small sample, and everything was fine after that. No clue as to what happened there. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials.
