Package: osirisd
Version: 2.0.6-1
Severity: high

osirisd's init.d script does a --chuid=osirisd.  This means that it is
unable to scan quite a few directories or watch for changes on secure
files - precisely those files that need watching!

I only discovered this when I was investigating why certain files were
not being monitored :-(

osirisd has privilege seperation.  I don't mind the ability to run
entirely as osirisd, however it should default to running as root to
avoid any nasty suprises.

Severity set to high since this has major security implications IMO.

Thanks,

Adrian (a very happy osiris user after fighting samhain)
