Hallo,

I have changed /usr/local/sbin/vpnc to setuid on exec:

# ls -l /usr/local/sbin/vpnc
-rwsr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  105092 10 nov 20:12 /usr/local/sbin/vpnc

but the normal user can't use it, it says:

$ /usr/local/sbin/vpnc
couldn't open `/usr/local/etc/vpnc.conf': Permission denied

It is not a mount issue of the file system:

# mount
/dev/ada0p2 on / (ufs, local, noatime, journaled soft-updates)

What I'm doing wrong?
