| blz | Hello, can someone please enlighten me as to why my upstart script fails when setgid and setuid are uncommented? http://paste.debian.net/706443/ | 19:55 |
|---|---|---|
| chras | do you have permissions to write to all of thoes files with that user? | 20:01 |
| blz | chras, aha, probably not. Let me try that. | 20:01 |
| blz | chras, that seems to be the problem. Here's the rub, though: I created a system user with limited permissions and I'd like for him to run the service in question. As it happens, he doesn't have access to /var/run, and i'm unsure of the security implications of modifying permissions for /var/run | 20:06 |
| blz | Are you able to advise? | 20:06 |
| chras | if you're doing your own pid management | 20:11 |
| chras | why not just make a subdir in /var/run owned by that user | 20:11 |
| blz | chras, hmm yeah that seems like the simple/obvious solution. | 20:12 |
| blz | Works like a charm, thanks again! | 20:17 |
