fdutilsconfig

FDUTILSCONFIG(8)					      System Manager's Manual						  FDUTILSCONFIG(8)

NAME

       fdutilsconfig - configure the suid bit of fdmount

SYNOPSIS

       fdutilsconfig

DESCRIPTION

       The  fdutilsconfig script provides an interactive way to configure the suid bit of the fdmount(1) binary.  It asks you some questions, give
       you a hint if needed, and enters your choice to /etc/fdmount.conf file.

       When upgrading the Debian fdutils package, the suid bit information stored in /etc/fdmount.conf is used to tell the new fdmount	binary	to
       keep your old suid bit settings.

       The  script  makes  use	of  the suidmanager Debian package, if it is installed.  If the script cannot find it, it manipulates the suid bit
       directly via `chmod u+s' command.

FILES

       fdutilsconfig reads and writes the configuration from /etc/fdmount.conf.  This  file  is  usually  created  when  the  fdutils  package	is
       installed for the first time.  Please don't edit /etc/fdmount.conf manually!  Use fdutilsconfig instead.

NOTE

       This script was written exclusively for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution.  It is not a part of the upstream fdutils sources.

AUTHORS

       fdutilsconfig was adapted by Anthony Fok <foka@debian.org> from the gnuplotconfig script written by Tibor Simko <simko@debian.org>.
