You should be able to just edit build-tree/apache_1.3.19/src/support/suexec.h and hard-code in the values you like. The real solution (which I have already suggested to the Apache maintainer) is to have the apache build process generate an suexec-src package. The suexec-src package would have a script to ask you a series of questions and generate a Debian package for the compiled suexec program. I've been meaning to submit an appropriate patch to the maintainer. -- http://www.coker.com.au/bonnie++/ Bonnie++ hard drive benchmark http://www.coker.com.au/postal/ Postal SMTP/POP benchmark http://www.coker.com.au/projects.html Projects I am working on http://www.coker.com.au/~russell/ My home page
