quenix# uname -srp
FreeBSD 4.7-STABLE i386
quenix# gringotts

(process:79056): gringotts-CRITICAL **: Cannot drop root privileges. Someone is hacking this process. I cannot go on

quenix# ll /usr/ports/security/gringotts/files/patch-grg_safe.c
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  876B Feb 22 18:06 /usr/ports/security/gringotts/files/patch-grg_safe.c

I have gringotts-1.2.3 installed on my pc.

I have the same problem, but sorry, not the solution.
