for my ESXi 7 host
[root@localhost:/tmp] chmod 755 /etc/init.d/xorg
chmod: /etc/init.d/xorg: Operation not permitted
it looks like a new security feature on ESXi 7, since i can chmod on ESXi 6.7
my question is "is it possible to disable this kind of feature ?"
i disabled the vmx sandbox, but it still can't chmod
Hi wmliang,
As you mentioned, it's a security measure indeed in 7.0. Please refer this article --> VMware Knowledge Base
sorry about that
i got this kb before, but i misunderstood about the kb
/etc/init.d/xorg didn't have sticky bit, so root account can't chmod
thanks for mentioned the article again
my remaining question is that "is it possible to disable it ?" or "how to edit /etc/init.d/xorg ?"
Is there any way to break out of new file permission lock?
Its disrupting alot of our scripts
