Summary: Manipulate a variety of UID and GID settings |
Perl only has concepts of effective and real user-ids (UIDs) and group-ids (GIDs), accessible via the special variables $<, $>, $( and $). However most modern Unix systems also have a concept of saved UIDs. This module provides a consistent and logical interface to real, effective, and saved UIDs and GIDs. It also provides a way to permanently drop privileges to that of a given user, a process which $< = $> = $uid does not guarantee, and the exact syntax of which may vary from between operating systems. Proc::UID is also very pedantic about making sure that operations succeeded, and checking the value which it returns for a UID/GID really is the one that's being used. Perl may sometimes cache the values of $<, $>, $( and $), which means they can be wrong after being changed with low-level system calls. Proc::UID provides both a variable and function interfaces to underlying UIDs.
