What is it that php5.1.2 reads /etc/group on startup to setgroup?
My Solaris 10 boxes use LDAP as a NIS replacement so that we don't have to
manage individual group files on all the servers.
When I start Apache without php I see this the dtrace dtruss script:
log.dtruss-httpdcmd-nophp: 26471/1: read(0xE,
"0\202\001\b\002\001\002d\202\001\001\004\034cn=cau,ou=group,ou=dev ...
<snip>
log.dtruss-httpdcmd-nophp:26483/1: setgroups(0xA, 0x1001F20A0,
0x400) = 0 0
times ten, for the ten (A) groups that the webuser is a member of, thus the
setgroups(0xA,.
BUT... When I LoadModule libphp5 I get this instead:
log.dtruss-httpdcmd: 25142/1: open("/etc/group\0", 0x2000,
0x1B6) = 15 0
log.dtruss-httpdcmd: 25142/1: setgroups(0x2, 0x1002CCFB0,
0x400) = 0 0
Which is a grand total of 3 (2), one from /etc/group and the other is what
is actually associated with the LDAP user webuser but listed twice.
So-- why does PHP manually go and read /etc/group-- and why? And how can I
disable or fix that?
HELP!!
TIA.
