xmcd local database
Hi,
I just installed xmcd. It is able to query remote databases to find info
on the CD's I insert, but it can't save the information.
The about box shows:
CD Database paths:
/var/xmcd/rock
/var/xmcd/jazz
...
cddbp://cddb.sonic.net:888
Here are the permissions on /var/xmcd/rock:
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 1024 Apr 5 1998 rock/
I think xmcd is setuid root, but according to the docs, it gives up root
privileges before writing the database:
-rwsr-xr-x 1 root root 230428 Apr 5 1998 /usr/bin/X11/xmcd*
Should I make the /var/xmcd directories writeable by everyone, or is
there a better solution?
