[Sheflug] SUID bit - hassles



 
 OK, I've done both chmod u+s <filename> and chmod 2555 and 2644, and
still, when I run gpg as a user in complains that it is not running as
SUID root.

 The only thing I can think of is that /etc/fstab options might affect
things, /home/ and /usr/local (where the GPG binary is) are mounted as
'default'.
 This is a RH6.2 system, I'm sure defaults allow SUID...

 Any other ideas?

 Baz.
