[-- Attachment #1 --] Hi all, I have a problem on a FreeBSD 3.3-RELEASE box where when something is executed by another process, it is always run as root. This happens with everything, including the crontab, make, even scripts that run other things like botchk. Does anyone know what could cause this problem, and possible solutions? Please be as descriptive as possible btw, thanx. regards, Richard.
