As long as the report ends up with 'Permissions repair complete' then, as far as permissions go, you are fine. You can ignore the various statements in the report:
Permissions you can ignore on 10.5 onwards:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1448
Using 'should be -rw-r--r-- , they are lrw-r--r--' as an example, you will see the that the permissions are not changed, but the | indicates a different location. This is because an update to Leopard onwards changed the location of a number of system components.

Warning: SUID file "System/Library/Core Services/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAgent"

Last couple of days I have had an issue with Safari saying the following : The error is: “cannot decode raw data” (NSURLErrorDomain:-1015). I have reset safari and in seems to go away but it comes back. On a whim I ran my disk permissions via disk utility and noticed a whole list of stuff it fixed with the last line being: Warning: SUID file “System/Library/Core Services/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAgent” then cant be repaired. I tried redownloading safari 5.0.5 to reinstall but the installer ran and said it needed 10.6.7 to install. Since im running 10.6.8 i was like ok there must be bugs popping up in 10.6.8 update finally. any help and fixes would be great . THANKS

No permissions repair trouble the whole time I had my new MacBook Pro. Now, I get this message (after a ton of necesary repairs:

I see the same thing but it does not appear to be a problem. Some discussion in:

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!

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.

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.

What does - Warning: SUID file "System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAg ent" has been modified and will not be repaired. mean?

I spent the month of November on the phone with Apple support.on a crashing and permissions going wild situation. I ended up getting a new HD for my iMac through and Apple Authorized service center. All has been well until today when I woke the iMac up from sleep to have it crash - a white screen of death. I rebooted and ran disk utilities from the HD partition and from the command R partition to have it say this -
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 are some possible remedies?

what do you mean by the obvious?, it's a permission issue, ARD must run as systems administrator to boardcast, tunnel IPv6 calls, etc.

System is acting quirky. I have to do a lot of "Forced Quit"s. Ran permissions repair and keep getting this as part of the report (Warning: SUID file "System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAg ent" has been modified and will not be repaired).
Disk utility seems to indicate drive is OK, but I have to do a lot of rebooting. Any ideas?
Thanks.
