Hi, after installation 'dbmsrv' and 'lserver' are setuid root programs. With 'chmod 775' you removed the setuid bit. The 'dbmcli' without '-s' connects to 'vserver', which forks a 'dbmsrv' to execute the wanted commands. This 'dbmsrv' does a 'setuid' to the owner of the user profile container created with 'dbmcli -s db_create ...', so the uid of the user that created the database will be the one the dbmsrv tries to change to. To do this it is started as setuid root. If you restrict all database accesses to exactly that single user, you do not have to set the setuid root flag. Otherwise you have to, since UNIX only allows superuser to modify own uid... CU jrg
