pre: mod_chmod

[sirmarksalot]

How is mod_chmod.so suppose to work?

I always get failed to chmod error messages.
chmod file.txt failed!

foo-tools/src/pre/foo-pre.c

Line 1084 in 73e6265

setuid(olduid);

foo-tools/src/pre/foo-pre.c

Line 1138 in 73e6265

pre_do_modules(files, buf, argv, subdirs);

the modules are called as a non superuser. chmod is unable to change the permissions of directories that are owned by uid 0

Try

foo-tools/doc/README.foo-pre

Line 132 in 73e6265

* Set correct permissions on foo-pre, it needs setuid bit set.

@silv3rr yes that is already correctly set and works fine. chown works without issue.

mod_chmod works aswell after foo-pre.c is edited and "setuid(olduid);" is moved from line 1084 to 1139
