Hello!

I am trying to get an suid perl script running under BSDI 2.0.1. I
have compiled perl 5.003 using the default configuration and several
variations. In all cases the suidperl will complain when run that it
can't swap uid with euid. Just making a normal perl script u+s has no
effect.

Anyone tell me the secret to making it work on BSDI?

Christopher
