Hi Bakul, > Privilege escalation should be done externally.
Regardless of whether it's a good idea, since the kernel is using effective user and group IDs for testing permissions, if a user ID is used to determine what files to access then it should be the effective one rather than the real one. Do you agree? -- Cheers, Ralph. -- nmh-workers https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/nmh-workers
