fping requires either root or CAP_NET_PING to work, otherwise it is useless. Use INSTALL_SUID so that fping will be setuid root, and thus it will be usable by non-root users. fping knows to drop root priviledges after it parses the command line and creates the ping socket. You actually get a lot less code running as root when you make it setuid root and run it from an unprivileged user. This is the same way net/iputils already handles "ping", which has the same requirements. Signed-off-by: Henrique de Moraes Holschuh <henrique@nic.br> |
