Here's what I don't grok -- the directory exists, and I have tried every owner under the sun. Why does it still think it doesn't exist?
Because you don't have a working suid install...
perl 5.8.2 doesn't include suidperl anymore -- so what am I supposed to do? If I am wrong and it does, please show me where and how I am to install it.
If I am having suid problems, why is configure --install telling me that the suid is working?
The 5.8.0 packaged with Redhat 9 was a mess, I had to get rid of it (it does not play nice with CPAN). When I did the perl 5.8.2 install, I configured in suid support. I did the install three times so I know I did it, and I didn't get an error message telling me it failed. If the suid support is in fact not present, I have no way of verifying that.
Another question -- why does it work with setuidgid from the command line? And if you're about to tell me that setuidgid is not part of perl, but it works with setuidgid, then wouldn't it be simpler to just run it through setuidgid?
I'm not the only person having problems with this in Redhat 9, so perhaps it would be good to take a closer look at it.
For the record, I hate Redhat, but this server was not mine to build.
