> Document user restrictions of proxy.config.admin.user_id
> --------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: TS-3288
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-3288
> Project: Traffic Server
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Documentation
> Reporter: Karl Richter
> Assignee: Jon Sime
> Fix For: Docs
>
>
> The documentation of `proxy.config.admin.user_id`, e.g. at
>
> http://trafficserver.readthedocs.org/en/latest/reference/configuration/records.config.en.html#proxy-config-admin-user-id
> doesn't contain any statement on restrictions for valid effective users,
> except that root is forbidden if not bypassed. They must exist because
> specifying a user the same entry in `/etc/passwd` like `nobody` except a uid
> and gid differing by 1 causes requests to be rejected after
> `bin/trafficserver restart`.
> The consequence of {{--with-group}} and {{--with-user}} of {{configure}}
> should be mentioned as well, as well if there's none.
