[Bigsister-general] /var/log/messages: Permission denied

[Backup e-mail <suppressed>]

I've got a small issue with <disk> and <msgs> tests. They fail
with the following error messages:

Cannot open the log: /var/log/messages: Permission denied
Cannot open the log: /var/log/maillog: Permission denied

The issue is that the <bigsis> account doesn't have the rights
to read them, therefore I could fix the issue by giving it read
rights. Nevertheless for security reasons I don't think it's the
smartest remedy I should implement.

Surely this must has been resolved since.

Does anybody care to share the solution?

Thanks,

  Costantino
