Thanks Uwe! I tried the global approach by adding the following to my local.conf file:
ROOTFS_POSTPROCESS_COMMAND += "my_setcap_function" my_setcap_function() { setcap cap_net_raw+eip ${IMAGE_ROOTFS}/usr/bin/node } But got the following warning: WARNING: core-image-full-cmdline-1.0-r0 do_rootfs: Function my_setcap_function doesn't exist I have tried to add the function into a recipe but this doesn't work either. Where should the function be defined?
