Hi, trying this: chmod o-rx /usr/bin/ftp; groupadd g_fetch; usermod -G g_fetch _pkgfetch; chown root:g_fetch /usr/bin/ftp
# pkg_add: can't exec /usr/bin/ftp: permission denied at /usr/libdata/perl5/OpenBSD/PackageRepository.pm line 869 # offcourse setting _pkgfetch as group owner of /usr/bin/ftp raise no error executing pkg_add. But its restrictive and not the goal . ----- Offtopic: (Can't apply the same kind of restriction to sh and ksh, for _x11) Best regards .
