set permissions/ownership on configuration directories? about puppet-unbound HOT 4 CLOSED

Any thoughts on this?

from puppet-unbound.

the standard way to do this is to add variables for conf_d_owner and conf_d_group
i'm not entirely happy about this, but may i ask why, exactly, you need this?

i.e.: what problem are you trying to solve?

I have just run into this during an upgrade to OpenBSD 5.9. Upon startup, without writable permissions on the etc directory, unbound starts with an error:
May 29 10:58:35 soek unbound: [6344:0] fatal error: could not open autotrust file for writing, /var/unbound/etc/root.key.6344-0: Permission denied

Modifying the permissions as 0775 with root:_unbound on the /var/unbound/etc directory fixes this problem. Perhaps I'd not seen this because my unbound was older than that being reported? I'll have a look over the code and see where we might address the permissions.

I think this may be fixed now with https://github.com/voxpupuli/puppet-unbound/blob/master/manifests/init.pp#L212-L214. If you are still seeing an problem can you create a new issues. the code has changed significantly since this issue was first raised
