There is a new response to your Bugzilla comment BTW.

Actually, his problem was the loss of supplementary group IDs when transitioning away from root.
And that makes sense to me. When I execvpe something, I am transitioning away from root.
BTW, I did find a work around before I got a response from the BUG. child_pid = fork(); if (child_pid == 0) { // child process. // Work around for bug 1095670 getresuid(&cruid, &ceuid, &csuid); // Get real, effective, and saved uids getresgid(&crgid, &cegid, &csgid); // Get real, effective, and saved gids setresuid(cruid, cruid, cruid); // set all uids to real uids setresgid(crgid, crgid, crgid); // set all gids to real gids execvpe(argv[0], argv, envp); // If execvpe returns, it must have failed. perror("lcrs_system(): execvpe failed : "); return -1; } else { // // This is run by the parent. // Wait for the child to exit. // do { tpid = wait(&child_status); if (tpid != child_pid) { printf("Problem with wait\n"); } } while(tpid != child_pid); return child_status; } Mark -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
