Re: suidmanager broken?

Hi,

We had the same problem here.  Just edit /usr/sbin/suidregister, and add
the line at line 170:

my ($username, $groupname, $inode);

You will also need to edit the following lines so they look like this
(basically, just remove the "my" word out of each line:

---------------------
# If a [ug]id has an associated user name, return that; otherwise, return the id
sub getunam ($) { return ($username = getpwuid($_[0])) ? $username : $_[0] }
sub getgnam ($) { return ($groupname = getgrgid($_[0])) ? $groupname : $_[0] }

# Return the inode of the file named by the argument
# or -1 if there's a problem opening the file
sub getinode ($) { return (defined($inode = (stat $_[0])[1]) ? $inode : -1) }
----------------------------------
