When executing a command, we temporarily chroot, fork and exec the command, then chroot back. We intentionally don't chdir in the parent process so that we can 'jailbreak' the chroot later. However, this has the effect that commands are executed with a current working directory which is outside the current root. This unusual state can cause errors in executed commands which don't

Hi, My results are getting out of order after I do the following command: count = result.inject({}) { |hsh, row| hsh[row[''name'']] = row[''count''].to_i; hsh } Why? Here are more specifics: My complete method is this (based off of acts_as_taggable code - not'' DHHs, but the original one): def self.sql_to_count_plays(lookback) sql =

For R v2.1.1 patched and R v2.2.0 devel: Calling source(file, chdir=TRUE) with is.character(file) != TRUE, that is, with 'file' as a connection, will generate an error. Example: > file <- textConnection("cat('Hello world\n')") > source(file, chdir=TRUE) Error in source(file, chdir = TRUE) : Object "ofile" not found Of course, it does not make

Hi, I have a few users that are creating errors like below. These users have mapped a directory via Samba and also have it connected. They can access their home directory or other directory via Samba fine, but it is strange that every hour on the hour there is a failure put into the log (even though they are working). My server is joined to the Domain and it is using

There are a couple of niggles with the sandboxing of the unprivileged child in the privsep code: the empty directory causes namespace pollution, and it requires care to ensure that it is set up properly and remains set up properly. The patch below (against the portable OpenSSH, although the patch against the OpenBSD version is very similar) replaces the fixed empty directory with one that is

Full_Name: Alex Galakhov Version: 2.1.0 OS: Linux (Debian) Submission from: (NULL) (195.19.131.68) After software upgrade source() does not work properly anymore. It completely ignores the chdir= parameter. This is because is.character(file) is always false after the assignment file<-file(file). The fix is (written by hand in diff-like syntax, hopefully, you'll understand it):

daemon.c does just a chroot, without chdir. The result is that pwd does not work correctly (it causes fs/dcache.c:prepend_unreachable() to add the unreachable string). A workaround is to add "cd /" before each sh command. ><fs> mount /dev/sda2 / ><fs> sh "cd / ; chroot / ; /bin/pwd" / ><fs> sh "/bin/pwd" (unreachable)/ ><fs> sh

Dovecot is faulting on an error about permissions that it shouldn't do. I've got an user with its home dir with permissions 700, and inside the mail directory with the mboxes. In the error log I can see: 'Can't chdir to /home/user. Permission denied' I wonder why it has to chdir to that directory and why it can't access. Shouldn't it be running as the user?

My spec contains the following vehical1 = mock() vehical2 = mock() vehical1.stubs(:mph).returns(150) vehical2.stubs(:mph).returns(250) comparer.add_vehical([@vehical1, @vehical2]) comparer.sort_by(:mph) The comparer is an object that has a basic "stack like" functionality, add_vehical is the

I am having a problem with ruby''s sort_by function. I want to sort a list of parent model objects based on the children of the parent models.

This patch adds a new option to sshd, chroot_users. It has the effect of chroot()ing incoming ssh users to their home directory. Note: this option does not work if UsePrivilegeSeparation is enabled.

I'm on R 2.1.0. In the "source" function there is a bug preventing the proper use of the chdir option (which simply doesn't work). The problem is that in the function the following line occurs: file <- file(file, "r", encoding = encoding) This overwrites the variable "file" and later causes the check if (chdir && is.character(file)

Amongst various problems I am having, I am trying to run an rsync daemon on a windows 2003 server with cygwin installed. It works fine, except that I can't seem to get the daemon to chdir to any file that is remotely mounted from my Netapp. Other windows shares or local disks chdir just fine. very weird. I think it has something to do with the automapping of shares in cygwin. Any help

I've been testing the CONFIG directive and config.c32 module and I've found a possible issue. It seems to ignore the directory of "/" but can otherwise go up and down a directory tree perfectly. Executing COM32 chdir("/") does seem to work. Also, I noticed that the config file name is relative to the old present working directory (herein pwd) and not the new pwd

Hello, I'm desperately trying to have a RSync server work on a Windows 2003 Standard Server. All the documentation available I have found applies to Windows NT/2000/XP I don't know whether 2003 works differently from the previous Windows. I have installed the cwrsync package. The RSyncServer Service is running fine under a user account named cwrsync. A successful Telnet on the port 873

A patch for a few more hiccups and trivialities in kinit.c: * The check_path() calls check for "/root" and "/old_root" - I believe that should be "/root" and "/root/old_root". * chdir("/") is recommended after pivot_root() * init_argv[0] isn't set properly to the basename pointed to by char *s - this fix also eliminates six lines of
