Hi, 
i am new to this stack overflow issue.

i am using fc3 (kernel 2.6.12-1.1381)

i have modified this few sysctl keys to these values.

kernel.overflowgid = 0
kernel.overflowuid = 0
fs.overflowgid = 0
fs.overflowuid = 0
kernel.randomize_va_space = 0


i am still unable to overwrite EIP

========= vuln1.c ===========
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
        char buf[1024];
        strcpy(buf, argv[1]);
return 0;
}
====== end of vuln1.c =======

$gcc -ggdb vuln1.c -o v1
$gdb ./v1
