Hi all,

Using the daemon/jsvc combo I can't seem to start a daemon as a user other than root.

The process dies in set_caps which is the code path it goes through if the jsvc binary is compiled on Linux and uses the linux capabilities interface to do it's thang.

I am just wondering if this is the goal or not? Should I be able to run a daemon as another user? For a production system it won't matter since I will want the servers to eb started from init scripts anyway and can pass the --user arg to the jsvc program.

For development however I don't want to have to run these things as root. Additionally some developers may not have the option of running things as root on their systems.

So, I guess I'm asking should I be able to run jsvc as non-root or not?

Cheers,

  Nige
