I've recently installed warp, and it works fine for me. However, when
other people try to play it, they are told they have to be logged on
as me. I installed it under my ID (wex). I don't want the game to be
setuid root - it's mounted on a Sun NFS partition on a fileserver so
everyone can access the files. What do I need to change in the
configuration so that everyone can run it?

Or if you don't have root access, setuid to your own uid. (Shudder! I would NEVER make any net program setuid to my uid!) -- Bruce G.
