Hi people, I am trying to write some php3 code to add dialup users to the
unix passwd file,
I am issuing the system command to run useradd , this didn't work because
you need root permissions to running the command, so I thought, hmm i'll
just build a wrapper and run it suid root (probable very bad, but anyway..)
Now the wrapper get's the error cannot get file lock on /etc/passwd. Any
tips on why this might be happening or a better way to solve to problem
would be much appreciated.
