Umm... you invent a scorewriter for removing the sgui games bit? And then you add a sgid scoresetter? I dont think this makes mch sence. Although it is true, that sgid games exploit are a problem, because they can be used to invade other game playing users, personally I think it is much more important to look at the other suids first. BUT: i realy do think each game MUST offer the non sgid option. We could have a global question herer: Do you want to limit gaming experiencing on your system but therefore increase system security? If you answer yes here, no game will be installed sgid games, and therefore you do not have shared highscores. <<yes>> <no> Greetings Bernd -- (OO) -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- ( .. ) [EMAIL PROTECTED],linux.de,debian.org} http://home.pages.de/~eckes/ o--o *plush* 2048/93600EFD [EMAIL PROTECTED] +497257930613 BE5-RIPE (O____O) When cryptography is outlawed, bayl bhgynjf jvyy unir cevinpl!
