hamm screen
I am having a strange problem with the hamm version of screen, it works fine for root, but when any other user tries to run it, it just 'freezes' as in: [EMAIL PROTECTED] screen it just sits there for ever, not error message, nothing. Any ideas? -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word unsubscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED] . Trouble? e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .

Re: hamm screen
Permissions correct on /tmp? (drwxrwxrwxt). screen creates some sockets in /tmp I believe. I'm using 3.7.4-3 here and it seems to be fine. yes, they are: drwxrwxrwt 3 root root 4096 Jan 15 12:02 tmp I use 3.7.4-4, I've noticed that it does not make any files in /tmp even when I run it as root. I remember that the bo screen used to make something like /tmp/screens/username.. 3.7.4-3 still seems to do that for me, I just tried it. after looking into this a bit, I found that this version uses /var/run/screens which looks like this: drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 1024 Jan 14 20:32 screens I tried changing the permissions to drwxrwxrwx, but running screen after that change resulted in this error: Directory '/var/run/screens' must have mode 755. I also emailed this information to the package maintainer, but he hasn't answered yet.. I might just end up downgrading to the bo version which worked perfectly.. -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word unsubscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
