2347.0. "Can't access from non-priv ultrix account" by MUTTON::LAMB (Peter Lamb - GSG Santa Clara) Thu Feb 13 1992 23:58

    Hello,
    
    I have been happly running FT 1.2 until the other day when suddenly I
    was not able to update/modify any of my domains with out becomming
    privilidged.  
    
    I'm stummped as to what the problem might be...  If I log into the root
    account everything works fine.  I have included 
    
    source /usr/mcc/mcc_system/mcc_login.csh
    
    in my .cshrc file and setenv looks ok.
    
    I am using the local mir and have set the database files in /var/mcc/*
    to be world readable (rather then set up a group access). In any event 
    this must be ok because things were working before...
    
    a ls -al of /var/mcc/* shows..
    
    apg14.wro.dec.com> ls -al /var/mcc
    total 140
    drwxrwxrwx  2 root         1024 Dec 30 16:39 .
    drwxr-xr-x 14 root          512 Dec 29 15:51 ..

    This should do it right??
    
    Thanks!

    You need to kill any running MMs if you change protections (they
    already have the files open and will not see your changes).
    
    But I don't understand why this would all of a sudden happen.  Are
    you sure you didn't do something like another installation or fiddle
    with the protections in some other way?
