Greetings All. I've found a strange phenomenon associated with capabilities. It seems to be a quantum like. when I run (as root) delfin:~# /usr/sbin/execcap '= cap_net_raw=ep' /bin/sh -c 'getpcaps $$' Capabilities for `2438': =ep cap_setpcap-ep I don't know what really happens to those capablities I zero. And I can't really figure out for when I try the wavefunction collapses delfin:~# strace -o /dev/null /usr/sbin/execcap '= cap_net_raw=ep' /bin/sh -c \ 'getpcaps $$' Capabilities for `2461': = cap_net_raw+ep Strange isn't it? Does it mean that processes can't really drop their privileges? please CC. -- Było mi bardzo miło. Czwarta pospolita klęska, [...] >Łukasz< Już nie katolicka lecz złodziejska. (c)PP
