/bin/csh from /etc/procmailrc on ssol25?

1997-09-09 02:12:38

I have a feeling that this is a "stupid" question and is probably answered
in one of the hundreds of peices of documentation that I haven't read word-
for-word, but, I'm stuck (and it's late).

Right now I'm trying to invoke formail/sendmail from /etc/procmailrc when
procmail is being used as a local delivery agent on a Sun Solaris 2.5 box
running v8.6 of sendmail... and /bin/csh is complaining "permission denied"
in the procmail log (although it is none-to-specific about what is getting
denied (or why)).

Now, the recipe, when invoked from a user's procmailrc file works just fine
and nothing abnormal happens... (see the "simple" vacation rule in the
procmailex guide for an example of something that breaks - not that exactly,
but, it still breaks).

Can I assume that this is some stupid setuid problem with csh... it is
somehow deciding it's "insecure" so it's basically telling me to "go to
hell" or some such???  Is there a simple way around it?  (or even a more
complex way?)


Thanks, in advance, for help on what I'm sure is probably a "stupid"
question...
