Various Solaris2.3, file permission problems
I for one would like to come out and thank Mr. Stuart for his forthright description of the problem. His description was well-nigh perfect from the concerns that people could have: (1) He described exactly what the problem is (2) He described what was wrong (3) He described a fix for the problem (4) His description is not so obvious that it creates a "drop in" program that allows someone to win a race and become root. I think his message was well nigh perfect of the type of information that this list was designed for, without making things much too easy for someone who doesn't have the entire picture, but clear enough to allow people to see what needs to be fixed. -- Ask me about Listmgr - the first PC-Based mailing list manager for E-Mail.
