rf9b5055 r94397ff 11 11 <title>Changing Ownership</title> 12 12 13 <xi:include xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2003/XInclude" 14 href="../../boot/common/changingowner.xml" 15 xpointer="xpointer(//*[@os='a'])"/> 13 <para>Currently, the <filename class="directory">/tools</filename> 14 and <filename class="directory">/cross-tools</filename> directories 15 are owned by the user <emphasis>lfs</emphasis>, a user that 16 exists only on the host system. Although the <filename 17 class="directory">/tools</filename> and <filename 18 class="directory">/cross-tools</filename> directories can be deleted 19 once the LFS system has been finished, they can be retained to build 20 additional LFS systems. If the <filename class="directory">/tools</filename> 21 and <filename class="directory">/cross-tools</filename> directories are 22 kept as is, the files are owned by a user ID without a corresponding 23 account. This is dangerous because a user account created later could 24 get this same user ID and would own the <filename 25 lass="directory">/tools</filename> directory and all the files therein, 26 thus exposing these files to possible malicious manipulation.</para> 16 27 17 <xi:include xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2003/XInclude"18 href="../../boot/common/changingowner.xml"19 xpointer="xpointer(//*[@os='b'])"/>28 <xi:include xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2003/XInclude" 29 href="../../boot/common/changingowner.xml" 30 xpointer="xpointer(//*[@os='d'])"/> 20 31 21 <screen><userinput>chown -R 0:0 /tools</userinput></screen> 32 <screen><userinput>chown -R 0:0 /tools 33 chown -R 0:0 /cross-tools</userinput></screen> 22 34 23 <xi:include xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2003/XInclude" 24 href="../../boot/common/changingowner.xml" 25 xpointer="xpointer(//*[@os='c'])"/> 35 <para>The commands use <parameter>0:0</parameter> instead of 36 <parameter>root:root</parameter>, because <command>chown</command> 37 is unable to resolve the name <quote>root</quote> until the password 38 file has been created. This book assumes you ran these 39 <command>chown</command> commands.</para> 26 40 27 41 </sect1>
