If there was a running list of what's normally suid then admins could go through and only set suid on programs of their choice. Which of course brings up the question, if NO_SUID is set, should a port that wants to install a suid program be allowed to? Or should it ask if you still want to continue with the install? Ug, perhaps a IS_SUID for ports :-/ -Joseph To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
