Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello people, I've just upgraded 4.5-R to 4.6-STABLE. Ok, but sendmail didn't work. After some investigation I discovered, that sendmail daemon runs with uid=0 and gid=0 - despite the fact that /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail *has* it's file gid=25 and setgid bit set on! Why setgid bit is on, but daemon still runs with gid=0 ? (and can't write to /var/spool/mqueue by default 'cause it's only group writable and has gid=25).
