#13533 closed bug (fixed)

login process always logs in as super user

Description

When a non-privileged user logs into a haiku box with telnet, the login process does not call setuid() or setgid() so the user is always logged in as the super user.

The attached patch fixes that.

The patch depends on bug #13530.

I wasn't sure what component to list this under. I almost certainly got it wrong.
