- I am having problems using setuid perl scripts since my upgrade to 3.0.
- I have lost the use of $< and $> variables. When I try the following
- little test:
- print "the id is ",(getpwuid($>)),"\n";
- print "the id is ",(getpwuid($<)),"\n";
-
- both respond with a blank. It does work fine with a specific uid.
