From 41537dd09a70327cc2a21f2b6cbd6e6f961e0ec3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Krempa Date: Thu, 20 Jan 2022 18:17:47 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] man: virt-admin: Remove misleading paragraph about unix socket permissions MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit The socket permissions are controlled by 'unix_sock_admin_perms', but regardless the code requires that 'geteuid() != clientuid' to allow clients thus it doesn't make sense to make users aware of it.
