Dear list,
I am stuck with an issue, I can not explain what is wrong.
System: Debian-amd64/testing
Problem: I can not delete or create a file as normal user, though the permissions seem to be set right.
Description: As the normal user I "testuser" want to delete the file /var/mail/testuser
However I get the "no Permission" error and can not delete it. It is also not possible, to create a new file using vi or touch.
Permissions are looking good for me, please take a look:
ls -la /var/mail/testuser
-rw-rw---- 1 testuser mail 382182 6. Mai 17:02 /var/mail/ullhan63
ls -la /var/mail
insgesamt 384
drwxrwsr-x 2 root mail 4096 6. Mai 17:02 .
drwxr-xr-x 13 root root 4096 6. Mai 16:17 ..
-rw-rw---- 1 testuser mail 382182 6. Mai 17:02 testuser
ls -la /var | grep mail
drwxrwsr-x 2 root mail 4096 6. Mai 17:02 mail
And also the attribs looking not unusual, please see:
lsattr /var/mail/ullhan63
--------------e------- /var/mail/testuser
I've got the IMO identical configuration on another computer, and on that system it works fine. The other, working computer, got the same permissions as this one (except the working one is 32-bit)
What did I not see? Where should I take a look, too?
Any help will be preciated.
Thank you and best regards
Hans
