So, I'm putting together some stuff for a DSL router flash memory
updater. While sniffing around for OS 9 stuff I have been picking
away and the OS X side. I found an easy solution -- or so I thought.
I thought I could make a pared down inetd.conf that only listened for
tftp and bootp and give them my special config files. Works like a
charm as root.
So, I thought I could use the self repairing authenticated tool trick
to pre-authorize and then execl inetd. It launches inetd but it runs
as a normal user and can't bind to the ports I need.
I know there are security issues but can I make this work or do I
need to hack my tftpd and bootp code to take authorize byte blob? Or
will that not work either ?
