That S stands for "set gid", which was originally the only use of that bit

Perderabo,

Thank you. This type of permission is used in an environment on a file that is like a type of configuration file for another process.

When I perform a

ps -ef | grep (config_file)

I get two processes that are using this configuration file while daemonising themselves. Does this have any significance at all if the file permissions are used in this manner or does it really matter. Thanks

pkcs11_inspect(1)						    PAM PKCS#11 						 pkcs11_inspect(1)

NAME
pkcs11_inspect - print certificate contents SYNOPSIS
pkcs11_inspect [debug] [config_file=<filename>] DESCRIPTION
pkcs11_inspect uses the pam_pkcs11 library infrastructure to get the content of a certificate and display it. pkcs11_inspect uses the same configuration file and arguments than pam_pkcs11(8) PAM module. It loads defined mapper modules, and use them to look into the certificate for required entries (ie: ms_mapper looks for ms UPN entries, and so on). When a mapper module finds a proper entry in the certificate, it converts to UTF-8 and print it to stdout. OPTIONS
debug Enable debugging output. config_file=<filename> Sets the configuration file to use. Default value is /etc/pam_pkcs11/pam_pkcs11.conf. As it uses the same configuration file as pam_pkcs11, all pam_pkcs11 options are also available. Note that some of them have no sense in a non-PAM environment, so they will be ignored. Some mapper options (mapfile, ignorecase) have no effect on certificate contents, so they will be ignored too. RETURN VALUE
On success pkcs11_inspect prints on stdout all certificate contents that are found for mappers and returns 0. On error it returns 1. FILES
/etc/pam_pkcs11/pam_pkcs11.conf EXAMPLES
To run this program the standard way, insert a smart card in the reader and type: pkcs11_inspect Alternatively you can specify options: pkcs11_inspect debug config_file=${HOME}/.pam_pkcs11.conf AUTHORS
