index | next in thread | raw e-mail
On my FreeBSD 2.1 box, sendmail is suid root. This means anybody can do a "sendmail -q", which I don't want them to be able to do. The sysadmin should have (sole) control over mail queue management. Is it correct that sendmail should be suid-root? If I remove the suid bit, what are the repercussions? Thanks folks, Mike <mike@NetworX.ie> ---home | help
