Hi, I believe having less root setuid binaries on system is The Way ... so: Why does RH6.2 ships with /sbin/dump & /sbin/restore root setuid? These are for sysadmins, not for regular users I hope. Is /sbin/unix_chkpwd really used and what is it used for? I haven't find anything about it in pam documentation. Is it really necessary to ship /usr/bin/gpasswd and /usr/bin/newgrp? Does

Hi! On March 17th I posted a message on this list concerning an artifact bug in beta4 that is audible in all available bitrates. It was this rumbling sound in the bass area. I made a demo clip, which still is available at http://www.stud.uni-karlsruhe.de/~us87/ogg/vorbis_bassrumble_demo.rar and that contains both the original .WAV and an .OGG @ 350kbps. This archive is 2.1 MB large. Today, I

Hi, I am trying to get samba 3.0.7 working with our win2k DC. I installed samba from the ports collection, so the kerberos library looks to be the heimdel version. I can use kinit to create a ticket and it authenticates against the DC just fine. However when I attempt to use "net ads join" it fails with the following response: [2004/11/09 16:32:30, 0] utils/net_ads.c:ads_startup(183)

All, Could someone explain the purpose of the uidswap functions with respect to ssh ( the client ). From what I gathered , ssh installs as setuid root and swaps ids when reading potential key files that may be read only by root. Also , I think when binding to a privileged port ssh swaps id. Is that so? What are the consequnences if you do not install ssh setuid root? ( As far I as know no uid

Hello, I have a People table and a Addresses table. A person can have one or more addresses, but should at least have one, so there is a address_id field in People. Now, I would like to have a form to fill the name of a new person and its address from the same place. I could use person.address.country, for example (it works), but I would like to simply use person.country for some reasons

Dear samba guru, I have a little bug i can't solve. It is pretty misterious to me, must be a problem how samba execute the add user script. Now here is the situation.

Aloha, I'm curious about the following code at line 203 in uidswap.c: /* Try restoration of GID if changed (test clearing of saved gid) */ if (old_gid != pw->pw_gid && (setgid(old_gid) != -1 || setegid(old_gid) != -1)) fatal("%s: was able to restore old [e]gid", __func__); This causes permanently_set_uid to fail in the following case: $ su Password: ???????? #

I just ran across this myself. I guess I dont understand why there needs to be machine names in /etc/passwd if you are storing everything in LDAP. Am I missing a configuration option here?

Hi, I'm trying to build a PDC and BDC to elimenate Windows NT on a network and have load balancing and fault tolerence for users. I've compiled samba 2.2.4 on two servers, working with openldap 2.0.23 with a master and a slave. Replication on LDAP servers works fine. I've set up a domain controller and wanted to set the other server as BDC in case the PDC goes down. Each time i put

Hi! I'm having a small problem with an assignment I have to do. We want to do an anova on some values, given for four different types of medicine.
