Description Moreno Rizzo 2002-08-19 17:11:53 UTC
for my in the setup there are 2 little bug
1) in some circumstance the multitread make dosent work correctly. Some prg is 
not compiled when another thread need it. I've solved with MAKEOPTS=-j1 or
with change 'emake' to 'make' in ebuild scripts
2) bug security - For default the ebuild configure the /tmp dir for use with 
temporary directory for inn. Probably the permission on tmp dir is 777 and 
in the inn configure file there are this warning
The temporary directory you have configured is world-writeable.  It is 
currently set to $TMPPATH.[...]
By configuring INN in this fashion, you may be
introducing a locally exploitable security hole.

i've change this in te ebuild this two lines
--with-tmp-path=/tmp \
....
PATHTMP=${D}/tmp \

thanks.

run /etc/init.d/innd start:
