In terms of using sudo, there is some issue with the environment variables
not being passed:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ sudo usrp2_fft.py
[sudo] password for matlis:
sudo: usrp2_fft.py: command not found

I found that setting usrp2_fft.py suid doesn't work:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] z.research]$ ls -l /usr/local/bin/usrp2_fft.py
-rwsr-xr-x 1 root root 9915 2008-12-02 19:03 /usr/local/bin/usrp2_fft.py
This is the same permissions as ping, so I thought it would work:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ ls -l
If I want to run the example program usrp2_fft.py, which routines (python
and/or c++) need to be made suid?
thanks,
eric

Thank you very much for your response. If I wanted to provide access
through suid, which file should be set suid?

Hi all, I looked over the wiki and the mailing list but could not find
mention of how to access the usrp2 as a non-root user on Fedora 10.
As root, I get the following response from "find_usrps":
00:50:c2:85:30:68 hw_rev = 0x0300
but as a user, I get:
socket(PF_PACKET, SOCK_RAW, htons(0xBEEF)
