<P>Hi Jeff,
 | 
						|
<BR>
 | 
						|
<P>that of course is also no good reason and it should be changed in
 | 
						|
<BR>
 | 
						|
the backend or sanei_pio. If I remeber right single port permissions
 | 
						|
<BR>
 | 
						|
can be set by fcntl so that a user process can access the releavnt ports.
 | 
						|
<BR>
 | 
						|
Hm, is it possible to create a separate process with SUID bit set that
 | 
						|
<BR>
 | 
						|
sets the port permissions so that your backend can work with user permissions?
 | 
						|
<BR>
 | 
						|
<P>Bye
 | 
						|
<BR>
