I'd like to know if a sgid bit on a directory represents a security risk, given the fact that the directory is not world or group writable.
I inherited an old SunOS 4.1 box a while ago like this - dunno if that is what the distribution was like, but I didn't like the look so I just reset all the sgid bits with no nasty side effects. Jake.
