** Description changed: It's nice that salt-master is now (in 18.04) using a non-root account, but salt-syndic has yet to reflect this change. The salt-syndic service is currently set to run as root:root, which causes salt-syndic to make files unreadable by salt-master, which breaks many things. Setting salt-syndic to run as salt:salt and flushing cache resolved this problem, except that it left salt-syndic unable to write to it's own log file. + + Update... + + After looking into this further, salt-syndic needs to access files that + salt-minion owns, which is a process that much run as root. It takes a + bit of screwing around with to get the permissions to work correct in + this scenario. + + I believe the best solution is to keep salt-master and salt-syndic + running as root.
