I need to "setuid root" nmap but I am not able to find the proper syntax for the command. I have checked the man page but it was very brief and didn't give an example. Please be a bit more specific. Do you need to set the setuid bit info coreutils chmod The chmod command will allow you to do this. For example: $ chmod u+s foo This sets the suid bit for the foo command.
Please be very careful when you do this because you can open the door to all
sorts of security problems. Remember pandora's box :-)
