Are you talking about sudo or screen, perhaps? I'm pretty sure you've raised one or both before as examples in previous meetings. But both are part of the Companion CD, and both are installed non-setuid, with instructions for the user to add that bit if desired, so they don't exactly match what you're talking about here. Danek
