[bf1942] bfv server le duexieme essai

[Andreas Fredriksson]

The only way you can get around this is by running the server with write
access to the mods/bfvietnam/settings
directory or die trying :-)
 
If you are concerned with security you can easily set up a sandbox settings
directory for a restricted user and
run the server with +overlayPath /home/dummyuser/writehere or something
similar.

hmmm... are you running a setup w/o a home directory or maybe a setup where
this entry isn't there in the password file (getpwuid(3) is failing). 

anyway, i have a feeling that this should be dead and was crap i added
before groking setup
