-rwsr-xr-x root wheel

when i run the code normally, everything works just fine, whether launching as root or as a vanilla user.

but, when i'm trying to step through the code with the xcode/gdb debugger, geteuid() is returning the uid of my vanilla user (the one i'm running xcode as).

what can i do to fix this so that i can properly debug without having to log in as root to run xcode?

thanks.

I don't believe gdb respects setuid (if I'm wrong, someone will pipe in), so you'll have to launch gdb as root from the command line and eschew XCode debugging. $ sudo gdb <PATH TO YOUR APP> Brian Bergstrand <http://www.bergstrand.org/brian/> PGP Key ID: 0xB6C7B6A2 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGP Desktop 9.0.1 (Build 2185) iQA/AwUBQr2dannR2Fu2x7aiEQKKzgCgiS4hYi/w4XcImLg/1nfE481w5cYAoO/7 2B2Qp1ZYHPwfdcO7fzdQC3Ri =Fjeq -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
