The rules are parsed, applied and the permissions are then correct but why is it not doing so at boot? The file in questions I've called /etc/udev/rules.d/49-udev-override.rules and it contains
KERNEL=="tty[A-Z]*", NAME="%k", GROUP="rcl", MODE="0660", OPTIONS="last_rule"
the default 50-udev.rules file has been left untouched. SELinux is in permissive mode and so I can't find a reason why it is happening. Anyone have any ideas?
I had similar problems with udev rules when adding a 2nd NIC and needed to override the assignments which switched the original eth0 to eth1.
For some reason, despite all the info that says the over-ride filename should be alphanumerically "smaller", it only works if the file is alphanumerically "larger". Which kind of make sense to me since a later rule should override an earlier one.
So instead of 49-, try 51- instead :D
