Re: (un)intelligent agent

Hi!

These aren't sticky bits, they are setuid and setgid bits. (Sticky bit is the "t" bit in file listing).

Oracle Agent runs without these bits according to my knowledge too, you just can't execute host jobs under different users than dbsnmp is running or smth like that.
