Manually changing a UID could (and probably will) have all sorts of bad consequences. Files would suddenly belong to the wrong user, and if someone has UID 503 now, that person will probably not be happy either. Zhilin, when you did the 'make install' the correct owner and flags (the suid bit) should've been set for bin/jobRunner. What does an "ls -l bin/jobRunner" show? Here I get this: -r-sr-s--- 1 basejob base 9051 Nov 29 21:20 bin/jobRunner and as you see both the user and the 's' bits are correct. If the file permissions are wrong, it might have something to do with happened at 'make install' time. And it they are correct, it could maybe be that your file system is mounted with the nosuid flag? If you don't mistrust the plugins you're going to run (and by mistrust I mostly mean that you're not 100% sure that they won't accidentally remove files that they shouldn't touch), you're probably better off without the --with-jobrunner-* flags, since it complicates the installation a bit to use them. //Carl -- Carl Troein - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.thep.lu.se/~carl/ ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
