Hi all I've noticed that syslogd run as root, but why? Syslog just need to connect to a port, get messages and write them to some files, so why does I have to be root? I know you have to be root to bind() to a port below 1024, but there should be a syslog user to lower UID to after it have done that?!?!?
Btw is the BBS, Heap and stack executable in freebsd? If yes, why? And can you guide me to some detailed info about ELF? Br socketd To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
