I've enabled ntsec and have the ability to chown and chmod. When I instantiate ssh-agent it creates /tmp/ssh-reagle but fails to write a PID. By deafult I get a ssh-agent exit of "bind: permission denied error" If I: chmod 1777 /tmp chmod 1777 /ssh-reagle I get a bad modes error on /tmp/ssh-reagle If I: chmod 1777 /tmp chmod 1700 /tmp/ssh-reagle I get a ssh-agent exit of "bind: permission denied error" (nor can I cd into ssh-reagle ...?) _________________________________________________________ Joseph Reagle Jr. W3C Policy Analyst mailto:reagle@w3.org IETF/W3C XML-Signature Co-Chair http://www.w3.org/People/Reagle/ -- Want to unsubscribe from this list?
