As the subject says: What functionality will I lose when ssh in 4.1-STABLE is not setuid root anymore? The reason for asking is that I want to socksify ssh on the fly with runsocks. I removed the setuid root mode and it seems to work. Since I assume that no program is suid root without reason, can someone please enlighten me what I will lose now?
