Re: Solaris 2.6 and sockets

I have noticed strange things happening under Solaris 2.6 (final release) Any Unix socket created by ANY application has permissions 4777!!!! ie: srwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Oct 3 21:22 mysql.sock Check out your /tmp directory :)I believe this affects almost everyone. I fixed this a while back.
It does not affect FreeBSD -current and RELENG_2_2 (that is, it will be OK in 2.2.5-RELEASE). It is NOT fixed in FreeBSD 2.2.2. I don't know if the FreeBSD patch was inspired by the OpenBSD patch; the fix came along with a bunch of other changes by wollman, one of the people doing most networking work under FreeBSD. Eivind.
