:Checking setuid files and devices:
:
:elevator.homenetwork.org setuid diffs:
^^^^^^
NOTE
:...
:and many many more
:
:Is it normal that so many files have the setuid bit on? Ive never
:noticed it before ( not that I read those emails often anyway)
It tells you what files with suid set have recently been created
or modified or reinstalled. You'll get this sort of thing under
normally operating conditions after you've done an installworld.
The files you listed are system utilities. e.g. chpass ... change
your password. etc.
