It is the minimum I would expect from a good package, of course it can be done much better. Personally I do not care much about the games, because I expect them to be unsecure and simply do not install them on important servers with multiple users. However I can understand admins who want to maintain a friendly user environemnt, and we should serve them by allowing "chmod g-s /usr/games/*". BTW: anband is playable without sgid, but since I do not manage to get past level 1 i am nor sure what kind of implications this has :) Greetings Bernd -- (OO) -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- ( .. ) [EMAIL PROTECTED],linux.de,debian.org} http://home.pages.de/~eckes/ o--o *plush* 2048/93600EFD [EMAIL PROTECTED] +497257930613 BE5-RIPE (O____O) When cryptography is outlawed, bayl bhgynjf jvyy unir cevinpl!
