Gary [[EMAIL PROTECTED]] quoth:
*>You also might want to consider using a c-wrapper.  In this case a c-wrapper

It really depends on what you're doing with it and the solaris kernel
isn't thought to be vulnerable to the older security bugs with suidperl.
Common sense is the best guide.

Also, a slight omission from the original message I sent;

*>> sh ./Configure -ders
*>>
*>> make
    make suidperl
*>> make test
*>> make install
