Hi, I've encountered a problem with su on NFS mounted home dir. In revision 1.68 of su.c, the code was rearranged to chdir before new uid was set, this chdir would fail if local root doesn't have permission to enter the target user's home dir. This is exactly the case when you have a NFS mounted home dir with 0750 permission while root is mapped to nobody on NFS. Is there an owner for su.c? I'd like to modify it to delay this chdir to after the new uid is set. Thanks -lqReceived on Fri Sep 22 2006 - 23:00:22 UTC
