  • Does your system use LDAP for its group memberships? Have you looked at the chmod and chgrp commands?

The rcars directory will first need to be part of rcars group (the folder's owner or root can perform this operation).



Syntax: chgrp <groupName> -R <folderName>



 chgrp rcars -R rcars


Then, the rcars group will need rw permissions of the directory.



Syntax:chmod g+rw <folderName>



 chmod g+rw -R rcars


To remove others access:



chmod o-rw -R rcars



  • -R is for recursive permission (all sub-directories and files in it).

Postfix configuration issue with fips on centos 7; mailgun relay

Image
Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 0 down vote favorite I am trying to setup postfix to relay all mail generated on the local machine via SMTP to a mailgun relay. I have used the mailgun relay before with success on an ubuntu server, but I am migrating to a Centos 7 server which I will be running in FIPS mode. There error log is below, slightly sanitized. I have a small enough network that I choose to have each machine reach out to mailgun individually (this the loopback-only, 127.0.0.0/8 restrictions) and no firewall open port allowing smtp in to the machine. I assume the FIPS mode (and with it disabling of MD5) is causing problems, but I don't know how to overcome it or if it is even possible for tls_fprint to use some supported hash such as sha256 or sha512. However, the relay=none is slightly concerning since I have relayhost set, but perhaps that is because the smtp process is failing? Any help would be appreciated! postconf -n: alias_database = hash:/etc/alia
