Does SAP DB really have to run as setuid root? I seem to remember once that I did a "chown -R sapdb:sapdb <sapdb-directory>" on an installation (the reason was not security-related but rather me fixing a mistake I had done). The point is that the database still ran the way I expected it to.Ooops... That was not intended... The dbmsrv is a setuid-root program and unfortunatly does not check the password if the effective user id is already the wanted user id. I dont think you have a wordaround. Must be fixed in code ASAP.
Any comments?
