Hi,
I have had the same problem
ls -l /var/lib/logcheck/
total 8
-rw------- 1 root root 13 2004-07-31 17:29 offset.var.log.auth.log
-rw------- 1 root root 12 2004-07-31 17:29 offset.var.log.syslog
ls -ld /var/lib/logcheck/
drwxr-xr-x 2 logcheck logcheck 4096 2004-07-31 11:42 /var/lib/logcheck/
I read that
"Also, do you know what version of logcheck you were running previously?
Logcheck has been running unprivileged since 1.2.19 and should take
ownership of these files upon upgrade."
I am running logcheck 1.2.23 - and have not run any earlier version on
this machine
I have now run:
chown logcheck.logcheck /var/lib/logcheck/offset.var.log.*
and hope this will fix the problem.
One thing I did which may have caused the problem is that immedialtly
after installing logcheck I ran it (as root) to test it was working.
