That's correct. If you go to System Information in CF Admin it will tell you the "User Name" it is running as.
Or just do a top command and look at the user running the cfusion or cfmx process. I'm pretty certain you can change the user cf is run under by updating the coldfusion executable in coldfusionmx7/bin/coldfusion It has RUNTIME_USER=""nobody"" and if you look you will see that the script just does an su command to that user when starting. I've never actually done it myself tho... ~Brad -----Original Message----- From: Barney Boisvert [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, September 04, 2007 5:49 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Can CF run if it's configuration files are not owned by root on UNIX? I believe that it runs under "nobody" by default, but you can change that during the install process. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Get involved in the latest ColdFusion discussions, product development sharing, and articles on the Adobe Labs wiki. http://labs/adobe.com/wiki/index.php/ColdFusion_8 Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:287748 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
