hi,

can anybody point me to readable manuals/articles/etc on real/effective 
uid/gid?

i had a parsing error when i tried to read setuid(2), execve(2), etc.
reason was that those man pages assume too much what i already know,
and proved to be too thick.

-- 
 so, do you like word games or scrabble?
