Greetings Programs, I know this has been answered, but I have only found pieces of the solution. I am a newbie to linux, so if you could answer with step-by-step instructions, I'd sure appreciate it. The question?
How to run DOS Graphics on console, not as root user? Right now I've got things running great as root. But because this system is used by many different users, I can't just leave the root terminal open. I need users on the machine, to able to run dosemu with the DOS console graphics features available to root, but have those users log in as themselves. I've seen rumors that this is supposed to work ----------- # addgroup dos # adduser me dos # adduser buddy dos Then, make /usr/bin/dos setuid root and executeable only by group 'dos': # chown root.dos /usr/bin/dosemu # chmod 450 /usr/bin/dosemu Now, only users in group 'dos' can run dosemu and it will run as root. ----------- I tried this- but no luck. It runs the reduced graphics functional DOS. Am I missing a step? Is this the right approach for addressing this problem? What do I need to do, to properly configure my system? I use the Debian distro. I'm starting with dosemu -kVt Any help would be most appreciated. -Carl Leonard __________________________________________________________________ Introducing the New Netscape Internet Service.
