  • /var/log/Xorg.0.log permissions after reboot

    Posted on

    I'm attempting to set persistent 0600 permissions on /var/log/Xorg.0.log, it seems that something is resetting them to 644 after each reboot.

    I have tried putting the following line in /etc/rc.local

    ~~
    chmod 0600 /var/log/Xorg.0.log
    ~~

    The seemingly automated permissions change happens a few minutes after login thus negating the rc.local script.

    Any help would be very much appreciated.

    I'm running RHEL Server 6.9
