Subject: [Ethereal-users] File write permissions during capture
Newbie ethereal, but been around the block with Unix for a while.
When in capture mode as root, my files are being captured to a hog
partition. My root umask should produce files with
rw-r--r-- perms. But all of my capture files are being written as
rw------- which isn't much use to me. There are several people on the
system that we want to have access to the captures but not give them
root to perform the captures.
I looked through the FAQs, the .ethereal config file and and docs I
could lay my hands on..nothing.
Is this configurable?
