[rt-users] rt/qmail problems

[Kieran Barnes]

Hi,

Thanks for your response.
I've checked all my permissions again, they seem to fine,  

drwxr-xr-x    2 root     rt           4096 Feb 12 15:04 .
drwxr-xr-x    9 httpd    rt           4096 Feb 11 11:58 ..
-rwxr-sr-x    1 root     rt           5545 Feb 12 15:04 mason_handler.fcgi
-rwxr-sr-x    1 root     rt           4633 Feb 12 15:04 mason_handler.scgi
-rwxr-sr-x    1 root     rt          31392 Feb 12 15:04 rt
-rwxr-sr-x    1 root     rt          23823 Feb 12 15:04 rtadmin
-rwxr-sr-x    1 root     rt           9122 Feb 12 15:04 rt-mailgate
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     rt           4736 Feb 12 15:04 webmux.pl

One thing I have noticed, is that suidperl isn't available.
I am running Redhat 8 which ships with perl 5.8.0, from doing some research on the web, suidperl is deprecated in this release.
Is suidperl a requirement for rt2/qmail to work?

rt-mailgate for rt2 is setgid (chmod g+s rt-mailgate if it is not).
The other important thing would be to verify that you have suidperl and
that it is also setgid:


beastie# cd /opt/rt2/bin/
beastie# ls -al
