Thanks James for your fast response, my comments inline.

The answer should be 'No', sorry.
The updated proposal is attached.

Sorry for the confusion here, the previous response was incorrect as I 
mentioned in my earlier mail.
Dante makes a lot of seteuid/geteuid calls.
My understanding is that, Call to seteuid/geteuid allows all the users 
to run such binary (ofcourse if the 's' bit is set). and We are using 
roles (RBAC) to prevent non-privileged users to run dante server. Using 
roles (RBAC) here means that the seteuid/geteuid calls are really not 
needed. please correct me if I am wrong.

I have added some more comments in answer to that question in the proposal.

Dante checks for SOCKS_USERNAME & SOCKS_PASSWORD variables in the 
environment. It does not look at the config files. am I missing anything 
here ?


Thanks
