I am certain I didn't need to reapply those file permissions with my
earlier version updates. But if this is the expected behavior with each
update, then that experience was an outlier. I will explore relocating
my logs to a location not affected by package updates.
Thank you for the information and insight.

I find this somewhat humorous I have recently started using linux. I am
amazed how often the operating system changes radically, and how short
the support windows are . . . when compared to the Solaris environment
we are turning off.
