Description

filecap  is a program that prints out a report of programs with file based capabilities. If a file is not
       in the report or there is no report at all, no capabilities were found. For expedience, the default is to
       check only the directories in the PATH environmental variable. If the -a command line  option  is  given,
       then all directories will be checked. If a directory is passed, it will recursively check that directory.
       If  a path to a file is given, it will only check that file. If a file is given followed by capabilities,
       then the capabilities are written to the file.

Examples

       To check file capabilities in $PATH:
       filecap

       To check file capabilities of whole system:
       filecap-a

       To check file capabilities recursively in a directory:
       filecap/usr

       To check file capabilities of a specific program:
       filecap/bin/passwd

       To list all possible capabilities:
       filecap-d

       To set a file capability on a specific program:
       filecap/bin/pingnet_rawnet_admin

       To remove file capabilities on a specific program:
       filecap/bin/pingnone

Name

       filecap - a program to see capabilities

Options

-a     This tells the program to show all capabilities starting from the / directory. Normally  the  PATH
              environmental variable is used to show you capabilities on files you are likely to execute.

       -d     This dumps all capabilities for reference.
