In FC3, lsof only seems to work properly if you are root. For example: the "ssh-agent" process is running as "jwz" and has the file "/tmp/ssh-rZlWVC4461/agent.4461" open. If I run "lsof -p `pidof ssh-agent`" as root, it shows me this; if I run it as jwz, it does not. This is wrong, since all processes and files are owned by the same non-root user. I assume this is because of newly-paranoid permissions on /proc/*/fd (in FC3, those are all owned by root instead of the user running the process.) How do I fix it? "Log in as root" is not a good answer, because I need to do this sort of thing from various scripts that are run non-interactively (and not as root.) -- Jamie Zawinski jwz@xxxxxxx http://www.jwz.org/ jwz@xxxxxxxxxxxxx http://www.dnalounge.com/
