[hunchentoot-devel] unix setuid

[Dr. Helmut G. Enders]

I'm using ht with debian sbcl / clc.

Currently the s-bit is set to start sbcl as root,
for using port 80.
But when i set uid back to <user> I got
problems with clc as the fasl files had
a different (root) owner. Even a
brute force chmod 0777 of the fasls has
no success. The clc stops with
"security... more than one user has write
access".

Now I start hunchentoot with 8080 and use
iptables to map port 80 to 8080.

How do you solve this problem.
A nice thing would be to setuid to root,
access the port 80 and setuid back, but here
I failed :-(.

PS:
 <off topic but perhaps useful>
 Currently sbcl is broken unter
 debian sid amd64, you have to downgrade
 the libc6 (libc6-i368 libc6-dev libc6-dev-i386)
 back to version 2.7-8  (snapshot.debian.org)
