I don't have a problem with bundling pure perl modules. It's the binary modules that doesn't make sense. For ages I assumed that the OpenFiler perl installation was buggy because there's no way that perl code should be able to cause the perl binary to segfault. It wasn't until today that it occurred to me that there might be binary modules distributed with SC. I just figured out why I couldn't get it to run as an unprivileged user. It seems that if you hand it '--user' and '--group' flags, it still tries to setuid and when that fails, it exits. Remove those flags and it works right. It seems to me that, in general, the error-checking could be a little better. Here's my first pass at a wiki page. Right now, it's not much more than a list, but I'll improve it. http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/User:Wfaulk/OpenFiler -- wfaulk ------------------------------------------------------------------------ wfaulk's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=6638 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=65764 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
