In some mail from pda () ING PUC CL, sie said:
midikeys might not setuid these days but you get the idea...Worked fine on Irix 6.4 here... although i had to change csh to sh for some reason... csh returned permission denied, 4755 and all. I assume the fix is to take out the suid bit?
Your problem here is that various csh's won't run setuid-root scripts unless you specify (I think) the -b flag. From the Solaris csh man page: ... -b Force a "break" from option processing. Subsequent command line arguments are not interpreted as C shell options. This allows the passing of options to a script without confusion. The shell does not run set-user-ID or set-group-ID scripts unless this option is present. ... then again, maybe it was done deliberately to foil script kiddies ;) Darren
