Any reason why it should work differently than 5.001? Is there any FreeBSD-specific patching that needs to be done (I just ftp'd it from CPAN and compiled)? The move to 5.003, of course, was prompted by the recent CERT advisory. If I have the following script set suid to root, it worked as expected with 5.001, but with 5.003 _nothing_ happens (no error... nothing). #!/usr/local/bin/perl print "\$<: $<\t\t\$>: $>\n"; Thanks, --- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Charles Owens Email: owensc@enc.edu "I read somewhere to learn is to Information Technology Services remember... and I've learned that Eastern Nazarene College we've all forgot..." - King's X -------------------------------------------------------------------------
