Yak had found that this was the case for /etc/passwd and passwd.local. Does anyone know where in the RedHat installer these are set? Is there anything in Athena that creates a passwd.local file. Yak's theory is that whatever is trying to do that has the default RedHat root umask, and that is causing passwd.local to be unreadable. Alex.
