I thought that only root could chmod and chown.

There is nothing about chmod in /var/log/messages. I' m working with Red Hat Advanced server and I don 't know if I have to set something about security to receive this messages.

Thanks,

Fernando

mmm, I can't help you any more I'm afraid.

On my install of Gentoo, all the chown logs go to messages.

have you tried googling?
