Subject: Incorrect permissions on parport sysctls.
Date: Tue, 9 Aug 2005 00:44:41 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20050809044440.GA7725@redhat.com> (raw)

We have a bunch of 'probe' sysctl's in parport, which are
readable. (world readable even). Make them write-only.
Without this, sysctl -a will try to read these files.
