Hi, I would like to give read-only access to mysql and apache-http server log files to a non-root user. I can modify group or other permissions. But is there any other way you can suggest? Can I update it in user's home dir? -- CS.

You should create a new group that allowed to access logs, and add new group in visudo with permission to access log files.

You could use ACL's, I use this ti give my normal user access to these logs, saving me logging in as root.
