This won't be a problem for most sites, but the order should be setgid (pwd -> pw_gid); setuid (pwd -> pw_uid); *not* the other way around. Otherwise, on most systems you'll be left with the wrong group ID. That won't be a problem unless you use groups for something special, though. - Chris -- In-Real-Life: Chris Torek, Univ of MD Comp Sci UUCP: {seismo,allegra,brl-bmd}!umcp-cs!chris CSNet: chris@umcp-cs ARPA: chris.umcp-cs@UDel-Relay
