Re: [ossig] SUID problems



I have used alt-connect before. Since you can't remember what really
happened, perhaps you could wipe out /etc/connect and do the make
install and run the add-provider script again? I have screwed up before
and reinstallation usually solves the problems.

PS: (You mean this alt+connect right:
http://freespace.virgin.net/fuchsia.groan/software/ ? I believe the
windows client is shareware.)
