Does anybody know why the root user can add read access for everybody to the /var/log/messages giving the commands:$ ls -l /var/log/messages -rw------- 1 root root 161613 Aug  8 14:12 /var/log/messages$ chmod +r /var/log/messages$ ls -l /var/log/messages -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 161613 Aug  8 14:20 /var/log/messagesBut with the same command can not add the write right:$ chmod +w /var/log/messages$ ls -l /var/log/messages -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 161613 Aug  8 14:20 /var/log/messages
chmod +w /var/log/messages seems to fail also for root user
permissions;root
