Hi net,
Recently I read an article, talking about suid'ing a common
command to allow root access with regular accounts. Such as

---s--x--x 1 root staff 32768 Sep 20 1995 /bin/mail*

Can anyone tell me how to do it? ( via /bin/mail or any other set-uid
programs).

Thanks and please e-mail me.

You're welcome, Scott. I'm sure your admin got some mail, too. HAND!

If you need to ask, you don't need to do it!

Why don't you post one of those lame messages with subjects like: "Teach
me how to hack, please!!"?? That'll make it easier for me to delete them
with a little script.

Face it, without us hackers, there wouldn't be such a market for computer
security. As for his wording, he was stupid. He should go to
alt.hackers or something and leave you alone. I however am here to learn
more about UNIX administration.
