Does anybody out there know of Broune shell script "compilers", specifically those which generate C language. We have a large suite of shell scripts which we want to protect from tampering. Perhaps more importantly; is there anybody using these, and what are the traps? Thanks in advance. -- ________Bernd_Felsche__________bernie@DIALix.oz.au_____________ [ Phone: +61 9 419 2297 19 Coleman Road ] [ TZ: UTC-8 Calista, Western Australia 6167 ]

We have a large >suite of shell scripts which we want to protect from tampering. An alternative approach would involve using a compiled program front-end which calls a read-only shell script. One such program is 'setsh' found in Wood&Kochan's _UNIX_System_Security_. We made a few tweaks to the program to support use of menu shells requiring interactive input. [Note: We also used setsh to support running non-readable shell scripts, but that requires use of setuid or setgid bits.]
