[aklug] Re: Ivman secret, please

Well, for what it's worth I gave up on ivman quite a while ago. Here's wha=
t I recall from that time though, maybe it'll be of some help.

Must run as two processes, one as a root daemon, the other in your .bashrc =
(or whatever your login init file(s) are called).

A wrapper must be set up so that one and only one user process may run at a=
 time. That wrapper must be suid. (although someone once said it could be=
 sgid, but I never bothered)

Any user that can run ivman must be in the ivman group, typically plugdev (=
this may have something to do with handling the suid, I don't remember for =
sure).

The filesystem options (eg FAT32, NTFS) must be changed from the ootb to 77=
7 so that the user can do anything.

If I remember more, I'll post. Good luck.
