David, I'm not sure how to get the test to pass under HPUX, but I've always been a bit suspicious about the need for "initgroups" (I've never actually understood exactly what it was for, to be honest). You may be better of just disabling its import in your Zope's z2.py: 834,837c834,837 < try: < import initgroups < except: < raise SystemExit, 'initgroups is required to safely setuid' ---
# try: # import initgroups # except: # raise SystemExit, 'initgroups is required to safely setuid' 871c871 < initgroups.initgroups(UID, gid)
# initgroups.initgroups(UID, gid)

On upgrading to ZOPE 2.6.1 on HP-UX I get problems with the daemon not switching user. This is caused by the compilation of initgroups not passing
#if defined(__unix__) || defined(unix)
This appears to be the only place where unix or __unix__ is expected to be defined. Where is it expected to be set.
Take out the #if and Zope works.
Is there a better way of determining whether initgroups exists.
I looked for any other version in CVS but it doesn't appear to be there at all.
David.
