glexec or why changing suexec is a bad idea
Jun 5th, 2007 by Kostas Georgiou
I can not really believe that the LHC grid people want to use glexec in every batch system. The thought of thousands of machines running this really scares me.
The suexec sources+documentation say it clearly but I am going to repeat it one more time “Do not make any changes in the source code unless you really know what you are doing”. Just count the security holes introduced in glexec for an example on what not to do.
