Hi!
In main.c, olsrd checks if the user running the process is root:
if(getuid() || getgid())
and exits if that is not the case.
Shouldn't geteuid() suffice? (It works here)
I am asking, because I am running olsrd from a setuid wrapper over a
shellscript (yes, there is no other way).
Sorry for bugging you about such trivialies... i really dont want to
nitpick...
