I'm looking at moving to OPIE and have bumped into a couple of areas which don't seem to be clear: 1) What should the permissions on /etc/opiekeys be? This file isn't created by installworld or mergemaster under -stable, and I can't find anything looking through the -current Makefile's. None of the code in libopie has O_CREAT set. The original OPIE Makefile creates the file during "make install" with mode 0644. 2) Why is opieinfo(1) setuid root in -current? The relevant commitlog entry (src/usr.bin/opieinfo/Makefile v1.7) talks about messing with /etc/opiekeys but opieinfo only reads it. Does this mean opiekeys should be mode 0600? 3) Is there a particular reason why opiepasswd(1) isn't setuid root in -stable? opiepasswd does need to update /etc/opiekeys and so it currently doesn't work in -stable. Is this just a lack of round tuit's for MFC's, or is there some other reason? Peter To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
