That's right. See my other reply. >I'm still not exactly sure how it can't see the gid when it >goes to run the cgi script I thought it would be able to, especially since >the set_gid bit is enabled. See <http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq06.016.htp>. The setgid bit sets the effective group, but for security reasons the wrapper checks the original group by resolving the original gid to a name and seeing if that name matches what it was told to expect. If it can't resolve the original gid to a name, it gives the error. >Would it help if I added a /var/www/etc/group >file with 67 mapped to 'www'? If that would allow the wrapper to resolve gid 67 to the name "www", then yes, that would do it. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
