root gets 'permissions denied'
by seog from LinuxQuestions.org on (#509RY)
5 years ago the like thread was marked as solved yet can't help me now.
after my desk top switched off on his own I decided to find out what 'syslog' was about maybe it can tell me why it happened.
Code:root@debian:~# /var/log/syslog
bash: /var/log/syslog: Permission denied
root@debian:~# id
uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root)
root@debian:~# grep :0: /etc/passwd
root:x:0:0:root:/root:/bin/bashoops!
Code:root@debian:~# whoami
root
root@debian:~# /var/log/syslog
bash: /var/log/syslog: Permission denieddamn!
it's time to consult clever people and here am I. help, please!
