Re: uid-task_struct Code after Proper Naming and indentation

Hi Robin,

Thanks for that and I will run the module and let you know the results.

It would be pretty much the same as we are reading uids again from the task_struct.

This is what I have been doing as well.

In fact Robin this is what my problem is.

I thought that in ps uid are correctly shown even if they are started by telnet.

I haven't looked at your code to see what it is trying to

I have, however made a simple module that will print out
the pid, uid, and euid for all processes. On my system,
it clearly shows processes with non-zero pids and they
match exactly with what ps is showing.

Can you compile and run this to see if you have different
results?

As for the telnetd process, that _SHOULD_ have a uid
of 0. That process is started as root. It then forks,
sets uid and euid to the user it is starting, and then
execs the users shell. The process remains around for
reaping children and then cleaning up the session when
the user logs off. If you are expecting telnet to have
anything other than uid of 0, you need to look at what
it is designed to do.

Thanks,
Robin
