Description Jarno Huuskonen 2001-06-14 08:18:19 UTC 
Description of Problem:
The droproot patches for tcpdump and arpwatch don't have a 
setgroups(0, NULL) call so arpwatch and tcpdump keep (root's) supplemental
groups.

Updated patches are in:
http://www.uku.fi/~jhuuskon/

Or just add setgroups(0, NULL) call before setgid().
Comment 1 Harald Hoyer 2001-06-18 14:19:29 UTC 
will be fixed in tcpdump--3.6.2-4
