<para>The commands in the remainder of this book must be performed while
|
||
|
|
logged in as user <systemitem class="username">root</systemitem> and no
|
||
|
|
longer as user <systemitem class="username">lfs</systemitem>. Also, double
|
||
|
|
check that <envar>$LFS</envar> is set in <systemitem
|
||
|
|
class="username">root</systemitem>'s environment.</para>

|
<para>Currently, the whole directory hierarchy in <filename
|
||
|
|
class="directory">$LFS</filename>
|
||
|
|
is owned by the user <systemitem class="username">lfs</systemitem>, a user
|
||
|
|
that exists only on the host system. If the directories and files under <filename
|
||
|
|
class="directory">$LFS</filename> are kept as they are, they will be
|
||
|
|
owned by a user ID without a corresponding account. This is dangerous because
|
||
|
|
a user account created later could get this same user ID and would own all
|
||
|
|
the files under <filename class="directory">$LFS</filename>, thus exposing
|
||
|
|
these files to possible malicious manipulation.</para>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<para>To address this issue, change the
|
||
|
|
ownership of the <filename class="directory">$LFS/*</filename> directories to
|
||
|
|
user <systemitem class="username">root</systemitem> by running the following
|
||
|
|
command:</para>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<screen><userinput>chown -R root:root $LFS/{usr,lib,var,etc,bin,sbin,tools}
|
||
|
|
case $(uname -m) in
|
||
|
|
x86_64) chown -R root:root $LFS/lib64 ;;
|
||
|
|
esac</userinput></screen>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<para arch="ml_32,ml_x32,ml_all">Some more directories exists for
|
||
|
|
multilib support. Change their ownership, too:</para>
|
||
|
|
<screen arch="ml_32,ml_x32,ml_all"><userinput arch="ml_32,ml_all">chown -R root:root $LFS&lib-m32;</userinput>
