http://www.bacula.org/rel-manual/Bacula_Security_Issues.html mentions that it is not necessary to run Bacula as root. Best practice dictates that if something does not have to run as root, it should not run as root. Do as you wish. > How can I be sure bacula is using the correct credentials I specified in the > conf file? Test it. Configure PostgreSQL such that it accepts connections only from that which you specify. Or you could monitor the connections. PostgreSQL allows you to monitor connections. There are several ways to do this. You can also issue the "select * from pg_stat_activity ;" query in psql. You also need to set "stats_command_string = on" in postgresql.conf See http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.1/static/runtime-config- statistics.html -- Dan Langille : Software Developer looking for work my resume: http://www.freebsddiary.org/dan_langille.php ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
