What OS is this on, I'm assuming Solaris of some form, would a better method be to setup pfexec / sudo to execute the file rather than setting it setuid root which could be the cause of your issue.

Hi , thanks for the answer.

yes it is an old add-on,

but the curious thing is that it works correctly if i execute it directly in the client .

(debug)

 
client#  ./bb-3510.pl 

 
only fails executing it normaly(./runclient.sh ....) whe it has to send data to the server ..

the line

$BBHOME/bin/bb $BBDISP \"$LINE\

i have troubles with a client hobbit and an ext monitor for 3510
(bb-3510fc.pl).
seems that it needs to be lounched with a setuid (as root), ...allright
but at the line
exec "$BBHOME/bin/bb $BBDISP \"$LINE\"";
i get this error:
Insecure dependency in exec while running with -T switch at /dev/fd/4 line
269
Something with perl?
Yep, Perl issue

delete this hobbit client  and install a big brother one  ?
Just for the record, bb-3510fc.pl isn't a Hobbit client - it's
an add-on script which is developed independently. And it's
actually an older Big Brother add-on (from www.deadcat.net <http://www.deadcat.net/>; ).

Henrik
