Re: wrong group set when sftp

yes, you're right. it was set guid and set uid 

ls -l
-rwsr-sr-x    1 root     root       167805 May 19 09:29 sftp-server

When changed setguid and setuid to x, everything seems to be ok. The
user and group
id's are correct in /proc/pid/status.

Thanks a lot...

Note:  When sending messages to group  5-6 strange undeliverable
reports are coming in chinese or in russian. who's dealing with that
problem?

Should all the gid's be 528, or is it normal?  Its parent seems to be ok.

It's not normal, sftp-server runs as a pure user process and the gids
should all be 528.

Since the parent has gids all 528, the only way I can see for this to
happen (barring kernel bugs) is if sftp-server is setgid 0.. what does
ls -l /path/to/sftp-server" say?

     Good judgement comes with experience. Unfortunately, the experience
usually comes from bad judgement.
