Thank you, I actually found the asterisk.conf settings after sending the mail. So next question is which folders/files do I need to change ownership of to make it work?
/etc/asterisk /var/lib/asterisk /usr/lib/asterisk /var/spool/asterisk /var/log/asterisk And the files in them of course Any more? Any that should not be in the list above? In asterisk.conf I am using the following: runuser = asterisk rungroup = asterisk Is this sufficient?

What distribution do you use? To run asterisk from command line as user "asterisk", just run asterisk -U asterisk (asterisk user should be created), or edit /etc/asterisk.conf to run as user "asterisk". In production you preffer running init script. 2011/10/19 Torbjörn Abrahamsson <[email protected]> Hello. I would like to run asterisk as an user other than root. I have seen some tutorials on the web, but I would like to know if there is some official how-to for this. Is there? I looked at a thread on reviewboard regarding this (https://reviewboard.asterisk.org/r/654/). It was Paul Belangers work trying to make the installation process take care of this. But the conclusion seem to be that the parts concerning this was postponed. So, did it make it in some other way?
