- I noticed that the distribution kit mentions something about a kernel
- bug making setuid scripts insecure. I couldn't find any mention in my
- system's manuals, so can anyone tell me if the bug exists under SunOS
- 4.1.3, or if there's a way to test for it? If the bug does exist, how
- can I disable setuid scripts in the kernel? Thanks.
