Hi,

I have just made a fresh install of Suse 9.2
I have chown root /usr/bin/suidperl & chmod 4711 /usr/bin/suidperl
but nothing helps (still getting this Cant do suid) and suidperl does exists.

Earlier I had Suse 9.1 and all was ok.
Is this the new version of perl causing this not to work?



On a RH8 box, /usr/bin/suidperl and /usr/bin/sperl5.8.0 are the same file, and both are setuid root.


On a Fedora Core 2 box, the files are different, /usr/bin/suidperl is NOT setuid, but /usr/bin/sperl5.8.5 is setuid root.

Try "chmod 0755 /usr/bin/suidperl && chmod 4111 /usr/bin/sperl5.8.*" and see if that fixes it.

Of course, if you have installed from a SuSe-supported package installer, this should have worked out of the box. If this is the case, then you have discovered a bug and should report it to SuSE so they can fix it - and other Q-S SuSE users won't hit the same problem in the future :-)
