_Description: Should man and mandb be installed 'setuid man'?
|
|
The man and mandb program can be installed with the set-user-id bit set, so
|
|
that they will run with the permissions of the 'man' user. This allows
|
|
ordinary users to benefit from the caching of preformatted manual pages
|
|
('cat pages'), which may aid performance on slower machines.
|
|
.
|
|
Cached man pages only work if you are using an 80-column terminal, to avoid
|
|
one user causing cat pages to be saved at widths that would be inconvenient
|
|
for other users. If you use a wide terminal, you can force man pages to be
|
|
formatted to 80 columns anyway by setting MANWIDTH=80.
|
|
.
|
|
Enabling this feature may be a security risk, so it is disabled by default.
|
|
If in doubt, you should leave it disabled.
