Re: [COFF] The MOO problem and set-uid

Thanks, all, for the responses; it was driving me nuts! I know the game as "cows and bulls" (or perhaps that's because I'm of British origin). I like Dennis' observation: "On the other hand, suid these days seems to be a fairly blunt and dangerous instrument". I've often believed that if you thought you needed set-uid (esp. to root!) you can probably get away with set-gid instead. -- Dave
