suidperl

Anonymous Monk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi Fellow Perlers I'm trying to find suidperl for solaris. I tried compiling perl 5.6.0 from scratch and no suidperl executable. Does anybody know what I have to do or where to go to find this peice of software. I require this piece of software to run neomail. Please reply to joseph.sirucka@netics.com.au Hope to hear from someone soon. Joseph Sirucka

i cannot say for sure as i have never used suidperl myself (in fact, i previously had never even heard of it), but after poking around the 5.6.0 source a bit with grep, it looks like the way to build suidperl is to pass "`-d dosuid`" to the `Configure` script.	[reply]

The interactive configuration for 5.6.0 should ask about that. I do remember there were multiple questions addressing suid issues. Paris Sinclair \| 4a75737420416e6f74686572 pariss@efn.org \| 205065726c204861636b6572 I wear my Geek Code on my finger.	[reply]
