I have just installed kscd (from kscd v 2.1-beta2-2). It seems to have installed itself with the sgid bit set - which KDE balks on when it tries to run it. Apologies if this problem is already known or fixed on later versions - but I thought it worth reporting as I haven't seen any comment on this list Alan alan@chandlerfamily.org.uk http://www.chandler.u-net.com
