This would not be possible since since the perl install is a custom build, and not from an RPM. Are you saying that there is a switch to turn on setuid scripts for the Configure script (and by default it is off)? In that case would you please elaborate, since I didn't find that?	[reply]

Monks, You were absolutely right - it is the "setuid-emu" flag to the configure script that is causing the headaches. I rebuilt a distro with "Do you want to do setuid/setgid emulation? y" and now the script works. However, when I try to build it with the following configure command: `./Configure -Dprefix=/home/csit/usr/perl -Dsetuid-emu=y -des` [download] as per Configure.pm, I get the following: `./optdef.sh: line 3: setuid-emu=y: command not found` [download] Am I doing something wrong? Can someone point out the correct CLI parameter that would enable me to install it silently? Once again, thank you for your responses.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
