Subject: [PATCH] 2.5.45: fix fs capabilities initialization
Date: Fri, 01 Nov 2002 19:10:16 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87vg3h6u0n.fsf@goat.bogus.local> (raw)
This patch implements filesystem capabilities. It allows to run
privileged executables without the need for suid root.
Changes:
- recognize new capability db immediately instead of after the next
mount
The complete patch is available at:

Regards, Olaf.
