[SOLVED] Wrong permissions on fail2ban.sock

I have a problem with fail2ban. For some reason fail2ban creates its socket in /var/run/fail2ban with chmod 1700 and fails2start because it can't read from it.
If I chmod 1777 the socket everything works fine, but that's not very reliable. Any idea what could be wrong here?
EDIT: Nevermind, I just needed to run fail2ban-client as root.

Time Capsule and Time Machine Wrong Permissions 10.6.6

Well, I have a 2TB TimeCapsule, and I used to backup my external Drobo HD with no problems, that means, my main drive is my Drobo and backup disk is internal TC 2TB HD.
From the last Airport or system update, it started to backup with wrong permissions, so it keeps backing up, but I cant access it back anymore.
So I tried the hard way, I reinstalled a clean Snow Leopard on my iMac and did the combo update to 10.6.6, then I erased the TimeCapsule internal HD and did all the Time Machine backup again (about 1.2TB). Great, almost 2 days, and now the same problem! Here is a picture of what is going on:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/536514/imagens/shot2.jpg
I just can't access the backup data because its backing up with root owner, with no access to other users, so my main user can't access any data from Time Machine.
Course, if I manually change every time all the permissions, it will keep to backup with the wrong permissions and I will not have access to data again.
Here is another picture:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/536514/imagens/shot1.jpg
So, how to solve and repair definitely the permissions issues with TC?!
Thanks in advance!

Ok guys, I managed to resolve this issue (hopefully you did too, but for those who might still be experiencing it), but it was a while ago so I don't remember exactly what the fix was... I think it went something like this:
*If you have many folders to do, it might take some time, and I'm not sure if there is a better way to do it, but here is my fix since nobody has proposed anything else...
1) Grab the blocked file in your TC and restore it to current Mac HD
2) Once it has transfered, locate it in Finder and check it's info (Command+I)
3) At the bottom of the pop-up window, you will have the list of "Sharing & Permissions" and there are good chances that in there, your current user (under the Name column) has "No access"
4) If need be, unlock the Preferences at the bottom right-hand corner (lock icon), to allow access to modify permissions. (This is were it gets fuzzy... I think you need to use the username and password that was used to create the folder back in the day...) Once it is unlocked, change the "Privilege" to "Read & Write" and you're all set to go! (I hope...)
Hope it works for you,
Matt

When I repair disk permissions using Disk Utility and it says it's completed the task, I click on it again and it repairs more. This has been going on for hours now. Could there be that many wrong permissions? Should it get to "all repaired" eventually?

It's normal behavior. You don't have to worry about. Most of what's listed is just a report of what the utility finds., not necessarily that there is omething wrong.

** (firefox:6083): WARNING **: Wrong permissions for /home/kevin/tmp/orbit-kevin

Firefox is starting to crash a bunch. I am running pclinuxos and after the last crash I typed "firefox" in konsole and got the following:
** (firefox:6083): WARNING **: Wrong permissions for /home/kevin/tmp/orbit-kevin
What is happening?
I checked the permission for that folder and it says kevin for user and group, and owner, group and others can view and modify content.
I have the following extensions:
downloadhelper 4.8.6
evernote
firefox sync 1.7
quickprint 0.1.2

Uups. Now, why didn't I think of that? Last update had 1GB of size installed. pacman -Scc fixed it, of course.

Wrong Permissions 10.9.3

Every time after repairing I've got this :
wrong permissions "Applications/Safari.app/Contents/Resources/Safari.help/Contents/Resources/inde x.html", should be lrwxr-xr-x, now -rwxr-xr-x
"private/etc/aliases" should be lrwxr-xr-x, now -rwxr-xr-x
Mac Pro 2010, 10.9.3 all updates, find my mac disabled

That's been an issue with Mavericks for some time now. It's been reported in the beta test program for several updates so Apple knows about it. It's nothing to worry about so just ignore it.

[solved] DBus permissions? polkit? a lot of things do not work.

Hello,
here is the problem.
i made some updates.
after rebooting i started to get problems.
I use KDE 4.9.3
first, NetworkManager was not working. i realize that there were some problems with permissions and NW.
in some way i was able to get it work and that's why i'm able to write here.
but: wireless is not working at all.
the error says: "no session found for uid 1000 (unknown)"
i cannot mount any kind of devices. the error says: "permission denided"
if i try to change the clock setting, kde is no more asking me the root password. indeed, the change has not effect. no error displayed
i really don't know where i could search for a solution.
is a DBUS problem? it seems so.
it's a problem of polkit? i found out that something happens in the last updates. i think that everything migrated to systemd and also there was something about polkit or policykit.
can some of you give me some suggestions?
do you have some ideas why i got this problems?
thanks in advance

yes.
thanks.
that was the problem.
i followed the wiki and i found the solution. everything is solved.
thanks.
btw, i was thinking that everything was in auto-magic because
1) i'm a newbie here in arch
2) i found that the package was installed and, noticied that pacman configure the packages for you i convince myself that it did also for systemd.
3) i read the news but nothing was talking about the fact that "you have to follow the wiki". so, i was wrong.
thanks.

New account gets created with wrong permissions (777 instead of 755)

Hey Apple and Forum people, looks like there's a pretty bothersome error in the way that user permissions get set when you set a user's home folder to a drive partition.
By default, a user's home folder is supposed to get 755, with all of its subdirectories (excluding Public and Sites) as 700. But if you set up a new user and point his/her home folder to a partition or a separate drive, the folder is set to 777 - meaning that anyone can read, write, and execute any file they'd like to from that drive.
Given the sensible defaults of 755 during normal user creation, I can't believe this was intentional. And if it was intentional, then it's wrong and ought to be changed.

Set the permissions on the other volume's root directory the same as the boot volume.
owner:root
group:admin
chmod 1775
Make a /Users directory on the other volume and
set permissions same as on the boot volume,
owner:root
group:admin
chmod 755
create your new user directory in the /Users directory on the other volume.

ITunes on Win 7 64 bit says file on locked disk or wrong permissions

I am using Windows 7 pro 64 bit.
I have been using iTunes forever without a problem,
Recently, probably after a version update, iTunes opens a small window and says iTunes is on a locked disk or the permissions are wrong.
I have read several so-called solutions on many forums and I have found nothing that either works or makes any sense.
I am running the latest version of iTunes. 10.4.0.80
I can play files that are allready in my libray and I can sysnc podcasts to my iphone 4 but I can no longer add any music files to iTunes.
I would really appreciate any help.

It may have something to do with AMDS not started.
Refer to this article:

Newly imported photos in shared iPhoto library have wrong permissions

I have recently encountered some problems with a shared iPhoto '09 library. When I initially shared it by placing it in users/shared iPhoto prompted to fix the permissions and everything was hunky dory. However, it seems that any newly imported photos do not have their permissions set properly so that the other user of the library on my computer can't do useful things like edit or email the newly imported photos.
Looking inside the library reveals that the permissions on newly imported photos are set to read write for me as the owner and no access for 'everyone'. If I hold down cmd-opt and repair permissions it is all fine - until I import some new photos and then the permissions are wrong for those.
I noted this effect on a pristine iPhoto library that I created to test this as well as my venerable iPhoto library.
Is there something I can do to change this behaviour so newly imported photos get the correct permissions set and the shared user of this library (my wife) is able to edit and email photos I import (and, presumably, vice versa)?

I have made changes to permissions to my old library a number of times. Originally this was to enable sharing in earlier versions of iPhoto and it worked fine. For example I've added a group that consists of myself and my wife and given it read and write permissions and applied that to all enclosed items. I've also had iPhoto repair the permissions as per the startup options.
Notwithstanding this, I created a new library in my pictures folder; moved it to the shared folder; switched accounts and allowed iPhoto to repair permissions; switched back and then imported new photos. While most files and folders inside the package are OK (including any modified files and the enclosing originals/year/event folder) the actual original photo files themselves have the permissions problem. This seems to prevent emailing or editing by the other account.

Wrong permissions when it is built.

I maintain Vulturesclaw. http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=14157
I was about to update but I've noticed on my old PKGBUILD though everything seems to be building fine, there is just one problem with the permissions on the $USERS/~ file. It resorts to being owned by root.
Can anyone see what I can do to change it, I have to admit I really struggled with this pkg first time around.

It does, but the folder seems to be only created after first time ran, so unsure how I would implement it.
I tried to use the plain vulturesclaw but that refused to compile, seemed to be looking for headers in the wrong place.

As you can see I'm doing some sed in the makefile, I suspect changing the GAMEUID would work, but some how that doesn't sound like the solution or would I even know what to.

The last ship, season 2, ep 5 is not working - wrong permissions have been set to the episode

I can watch every other episode apart from this one, I know some access rights/permissions are set wrong atm for this episode because I get a different message on the right hand side of the screen it says "You will need to be a Sky TV customer with the relevant pack to watch this programme." Also something else is wrong with the title, the webpage shows it as "The Last Ship The Last Ship Series 2 Ep 5 Last Ship, The 5" . Sky1 - 1st Broadcast = Aug 2nd 2015 - Available for 29 days - Availability = Free

[SOLVED] On permissions.

I have an offline post-install Arch setup; no GUI programs or anything that's not in core packages. I'm generally learning as I go and filling my holes in knowledge regarding Linux when needed. This time I tried tightening permissions a little bit before going online, and apparently caused something go wrong in the process.
When I log in with my user account, it returns no "No directory, logging in with HOME=/" and puts me in root directory of the system, instead of my user directory. I booted up my Ubuntu system to check how permissions are set there, but replicating them didn't get rid of me being unable to access my own directory. I've set user directories to be owned by 'user' and 'users' group. Even after running 'chmod -R 777 /home/user' doesn't allow me look into my own home directory. It has left me rather puzzled.
How can I get rid of the message and successfully access my home folder? Whilst doing that, what are the general guidelines regarding tightening of directory permissions, i.e. what needs to be kept in mind to leave system usable?
P.S. I apologize in advance if I've left out a necessary detail or two in my first post; it's late and my brain is hardly up to its best.

Maybe the problem is with /home and not /home/user.

/dev/video0 and wrong permissions

Hi.
I have a usb webcam (/dev/video0, uvcvideo module)
After latest updates, /dev/video0 permissions are wrong (group root, access None instead of group Video, access RW)
Reloading uvcvideo module fixes the permissions.
This happens randomly, some times the permissions are right, other wrong, and i need to reload the module or do:
chgrp video /dev/video0
chmod 660 /dev/video0
I am in the 'video' group.
Never had this problem before.
Is this a udev problem? Kernel module problem?
Thanks.

I've read some forum posts that suggest that being in the video group (or audio etc.) can actually cause problems for you now. Try removing yourself from the group, log out then back in again, and see if the problem goes away.
