I compiled some programs that I wanted to make available to all of my coda clients. For this code I ran configure with --prefix=/usr/foo, and then after doing the install locally copied the tree rooted at /usr/foo to /coda/project/bar/foo-top/usr/foo I set acls on all of this so that it was all for me and rl for the group. Then, on clients I made a symlink /usr/foo -> /coda/project/bar/foo-top/usr/foo I tried to run one of binaries me (I had tokens) and it failed not finding a shared library that was in /usr/foo/lib. I tried to run ldconfig as root, and couldn't read the libraries. So I made the library dir world readable, and then I could run ldconfig. How do people deal with this? Do I have to create a root user and give it a coda password, and run clog for it out of cron on the clients? Any other thoughts? Greg Troxel <gdt_at_ir.bbn.com>Received on 1998-11-24 11:53:54
