NAME
fdutilsconfig - configure the suid bit of fdmount
SYNOPSIS
fdutilsconfig
DESCRIPTION
The
fdutilsconfig
script provides an interactive way to configure the suid bit of
the
R fdmount (1)
binary. It asks you some questions, give you a hint
if needed, and enters your choice to
/etc/fdmount.conf
file.
When upgrading the Debian fdutils package, the suid bit information stored in
/etc/fdmount.conf
is used to tell the new fdmount binary to keep your old suid bit settings.
The script makes use of the
R suidmanager
Debian package, if it is installed. If the script cannot find it,
it manipulates the suid bit directly via `chmod u+s' command.
FILES
fdutilsconfig
reads and writes the configuration from /etc/fdmount.conf. This file is
usually created when the fdutils package is installed for the first time.
Please don't edit /etc/fdmount.conf manually! Use
fdutilsconfig
instead.
NOTE
This script was written exclusively for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution.
It is not a part of the upstream fdutils sources.
AUTHORS
fdutilsconfig
was adapted by Anthony Fok <foka@debian.org> from the
gnuplotconfig
script written by Tibor Simko <simko@debian.org>.
