Did anyone attempted a port of sudo more recent than v1.5.6p3 to QNX4?
Is it something beyond ./configure; make; make install process?
Yes, getting the sudo to work was quite easy even for such a lamer as me.
However, the sudoedit part of it does not work - if I try editing a file, I get complains from mkstemp() that it was not able to open a copy of a file for Permission denied error.
The mkstemp() is not documented in Watcom v10.6B…
This was really easy!
I did not realize that sudoedit was running on the actual user’s priority credentials. The cause was that the temporary folder (/var/tmp) was not write-allowed for him.
I did it chmod a=rwxt tmp and everything works now.
