NAME

       vmware-user-suid-wrapper - wrapper programm for vmware-user(1)

SYNOPSIS

       vmware-user-suid-wrapper

DESCRIPTION

       Operations  on  the  vmblock(9) filesystem are considered privileged, and as such may only be issued on a file descriptor acquired by root.
       This is accomplished by vmware-user-suid-wrapper, a small setuid wrapper whose only purpose is to acquire  a  filesystem  file  descriptor,
       drop  superuser	privileges, and then execute vmware-user(1).  In particular, prepare the system for vmware-user means that it unmounts the
       vmblock file system, unloads the vmblock module, then reloads the module, mounts the file system, and opens a file descriptor that  vmware-
       user can use to add and remove blocks.

OPTIONS

       vmware-user-suid-wrapper has no options.
