Is this dangerous: 'PERMISSION WILL NOT BE REPAIRED'?
Hello to all,
Last night I had put my Mac to sleep; today, when I woke it up I found a pop up stating that I had not ejected the disk properly, and that there will be an attempt to repair it. [It did not state which disc had not been ejected properly...I have several externals attached]. The pop up also instructed me that next time I eject a disk, I should select and eject it using the finder. My problem is this: I had only put the Mac to sleep and had not ejected any of the drives attached.
Anyway, thinking that it is better for me to do so, I opened up disk utility and started to repair/ repair permissions. All the external drives were given a clean chit, but while repairing disk permissions for the internal hard drive, I encountered this statement:
May I be informed by enlightened members as to what action I should recourse to in this matter? Is this a matter to be greatly concerned about?
Thanks in advance.
There are many messages resulting from repairing permissions that can be ignored. See this Apple note for the list.

Warning: SUID file “System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAg ent” has been modified and will not be repaired. When I repaired "disk permission", this message was what came up. What does this mean, and how can I fix it?
The opperating system I am using is 10.7.4, and updating to the latest version currently. Computer is running fine, except that when I did some utility repairs, I got the warning above, and not really sure what do, in regards to repairing it correctly, not just getting the message off of my computer.
Thank you for your help, and please only contribute if you know about this issue please.That's a status message which can be safely ignored.

My computer is running well but I get this every time I repair the disk permissions, does anyone know why?:
“System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAge nt” has been modified and will not be repaired.ACL found but not expected on “private/var/root/Library”Repaired “private/var/root/Library”ACL found but not expected on “private/var/root/Library/Preferences”Repaired “private/var/root/Library/Preferences”
I don't believe I've ever had absolutely nothing ...
Thanks.That's a permission issue caused by an Apple Remote Desktop client update. It can be ignored and it does not cause any issue, so do not worry about it. See > http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1448

Besides the obvious, does anyone have any info. as to what this means:"Warning: SUID file "System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAg ent" has been modified and will not be repaired."
what do you mean by the obvious?, it's a permission issue, ARD must run as systems administrator to boardcast, tunnel IPv6 calls, etc.

No permissions repair trouble the whole time I had my new MacBook Pro. Now, I get this message (after a ton of necesary repairs:
Warning: SUID file “System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAg ent” has been modified and will not be repaired.
What does this mean, and what can i do?I see the same thing but it does not appear to be a problem. Some discussion in:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/15688567#15688567
I'm actually seeing a lot fewer permission repairs than I used to see (and they didn't seem to cause problems either ). Hope that helps! -
What does this message mean? "Warning: SUID file "System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAg ent" has been modified and will not be repaired" I get this when I try to repair permissions in disk utility.
It's an innocuous error you can ignore. It was introduced with previous updates for ARD and/or Java before Lion. These are messages, not errors. They will cause no harm, and they will be repeated each time you repair permissions.

When I run a system utilities check and select HD. i always get a prompt the the SUID System/Library/CoreS has been modified and will not be repaired. How can I access this file so that I may repair it? Left unrepaired . There are a lot of files that do not have the correct code. They are one thing but should be another
Hello there, toestothenose.
It seems that you may not have gotten the entire message into your thread here, but the following Knowledge Base article offers a good resource on which messages from Disk Utility's Repair Disk Permissions can be safely ignored:

Hi There! I have a question on Kernel Task-Threat. How can I clean my computer? This is the message that persists when cleaning disc--Warning: SUID file “System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAg ent” has been modified and will not be repaired.
That's a routine message and it means nothing. Don't waste your time repairing permissions unless you know you have a problem that can be solved that way, which you probably never will.

Warning: SUID file "System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAg ent" has been modified and will not be repaired.
When I repair my permissions, this never gets repaired. Can anyone tell me how to fix this?
Also, can anyone tell me why my disk permissions are constantly being changed?It's a recurring message. It's innocuous and of no concern. It is the result of the ARD installation you did. Just ignore it.

Repaired permissions once, got rid of the the previous iTunes errors. Cleared history and repaired again, still get:
Warning: SUID file “System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAg ent” has been modified and will not be repaired.
Any ideas?I have just started seeing this message and, almost simultaneously, have started to have problems with various different apps crashing for no real reason. Just a coincidence?
For interest, SketchUp crashed with the message
"Exception Type: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGSEGV)
Exception Codes: KERN_INVALID_ADDRESS at 0x00000000f7f7fff9"
and QuarkXpress with the message
"Exception Type: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGBUS)
Exception Codes: KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE at 0x0000000000000000"
Am I just punching at shadows or could these be linked?
Hope someone can put my mind at rest.
