I have two systems unrelated to each other with the same problem.
Both systems are running 5.0.5 and have RS505A patch loaded. At the
beginning of the month, a user will log into a certain program. If an
error occurs while running the program, a log file is created
automatically and the ownership and group are associated to the user.
The permissions are set to 644 on the file. Once the file is created,
other users that have errors occur in the same program will
automatically update the log. With the permissions being incorrect,
this can't happen and causes a core file to be created. I've checked
all the users and the umask settings are all set to 0. I'm not
trained in Unix and I've had to learn as I earn. Any suggestions as
to what I else I can check? Thanks!
