dear all, i have several user accounts under RH8. after a user logs in, it is important to launch firestarter. doing so requires the root password. so i figured i must set this up automatically to boot under each account.
therefore, i did the following things: 1) typed $which firestarter and to this one, did a chmod u+s, as well as a g+s, to set sticky bits. for good measure, did the chmod U+s and g+s to the firestarter in /usr/bin, to the one in /usr/sbin, to also the /usr/bin/consolehelper that i found /usr/bin/firestarter was pointing to. finally, did a ls -l check on all these to confirm the sticky bit. tried launching firestarter. the prompt for the root password did not come, but firestarter did not launch either. ? earlier, had also made an entry in /etc/rc.local for the command to automatically launch firestarter at boot time. is the above problem the reason it did not launch, either? ?
