[PATCH 35/35] multipathd: uxclt: allow client mode for non-root, too

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Martin Wilck <mwilck@xxxxxxxx>

The server checks for root permissions anyway. "multipathd -k"
should work for ordinary users as long as no priviledged commands
are executed.
