I just noticed that on centso 4.5 I have an executable with the +s (chmod +s myexe) doing a chmod root myexe and chown root myexe does NOT affect the +s setting.
However, on centos 5 this is not the case. chmod +s myexe chown root myexe or chgrp root myexe will DROP the +s status.
How can I get around this? I want to keep the owner, group, world settings.
I don't know, but as far as I'm concerned, the behaviour you get on CentOS 5 is the correct one, just like I used to get on AIX, Solaris and several other UNIXs I used in the past.
