[hobbit] error in 3510

[Mike Rowell]

What OS is this on, I'm assuming Solaris of some form, would a better method be to setup pfexec / sudo to execute the file rather than setting it setuid root which could be the cause of your issue.

Hi , thanks for the answer.

yes it is an old add-on,

but the curious thing is that it works correctly if i execute it directly in the client .

(debug)

 

client#  ./bb-3510.pl 

 

only fails executing it normaly(./runclient.sh ....) whe it has to send data to the server ..

the line

$BBHOME/bin/bb $BBDISP \"$LINE\

Yep, Perl issue

Just for the record, bb-3510fc.pl isn't a Hobbit client - it's
an add-on script which is developed independently. And it's
actually an older Big Brother add-on (from www.deadcat.net <http://www.deadcat.net/> ).
