1.341 OL09-00-002512

Information

OL 9 local files and directories must have a valid owner.

GROUP ID: V-271781
RULE ID: SV-271781r1092055

Unowned files and directories may be unintentionally inherited if a user is assigned the same user identifier "UID" as the UID of the unowned files.

Solution

Configure OL 9 local files and directories to have a valid owner.

Either remove all files and directories from the system that do not have a valid user, or assign a valid user to all unowned files and directories on OL 9 with the "chown" command:

$ sudo chown <user> <file>
