* Attempt to fix problem with users being able to convince the crontabdwmalone2000-11-062-9/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | program to read any file which is a valid crontab file. The fix is based on that used in NetBSD and OpenBSD - we keep the file open while the user is editing it. This means that files must be edited in place. Cron attempts to warn you if your editor does not do this. The fact that the file must be edited in place is also noted in the man page. This patch has been confirmed to work by atleast one person on -security and has been tested locally. Obtained from: OpenBSD

* This is a hack. Cron runs with stdin/out/err pointing to /dev/console,peter1999-04-061-1/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | which init thoughtfully revoke()'s when starting a getty on ttyv0. This Cron's popen() was passing these fd's through to cron children (ie: sendmail, *not* normal cron jobs). The side effects were usually not noticed, but it tripped up postfix which did a sanity check to see that stdin/out/err were open, and got EBADF even thought the fd's were in use. I seem to recall sendmail itself has hacks to work around this problem, it had a checkfd012() function, possibly for this same problem. (Postfix has a workaround too now though..) This is a hack, not a fix. It's probably best to check and perhaps close/reopen() /dev/console if needed each time around the event loop. It would probably be useful to actually see any error messages from cron.
