Not sure what Linux you are running, but have you looked SELinux This could be causing you your access issues.



Check this link out on ways to turn it off to see if it is the culprit.



http://www.crypt.gen.nz/selinux/disable_selinux.html


The machine has a /selinux directory, but no files inside, running echo 0 > /selinux/enforce has no effect (other than creating the file)...

I don't have any selinux commands like setenforce or similar

As I said, I'm using Debian Lenny, AKAIK, this doesn't enable selinux by default, and I don't think it is running.

Is there any other way to see what is happening or why? This was one of the things I initially thought it might be, but I'm not sure how to proceed since it doesn't appear to be running/active...

Adam
