[SunHELP] Need help setuid/setgid

[Christopher Smiga]

Ravi,

When you implemented the setuid/setgid tags to this file, did you also
implement the execute right (x) to the this file as well.

Example:
chmod 6755 /tmp/auto

-rwsr-sr-x   1 build    cm           640 Dec 27 19:09 /tmp/auto

The file that you are applying the setuid and setguid tags to must have
execute rights applied as well. Hope this helps.

Hello,

User "rkatti" (myself) belongs to "sw" group and I am trying to run a
script(bourne shell) as a user "build" who is part of "cm" group with proper
setuid/setgid. But still when I execute the script, user is not switched. Am
I missing something here ?

Any clues pointers will be highly appreciated.

-rwsr-sr-x   1 build    cm           640 Dec 27 19:09 /tmp/auto


Thanks & Regards
Ravi
