I would like to add some more info ...
I finally came around to writing the threads for each session that
the Pop Server will handle, I tested it and despite 'x' sessions
spawned, 'ps' would show just one process in the list. But this was
when I used the green option. However, when I used -native,
not only did ps indicate that some threads with differant PIDS
spawned by JVM were running as root, also everytime I opened a
Pop Session this list would grow larger with the new threads
spawned, and they too were having root privileges.
I hope the fix comes around quick, because running as -green
is not really a solution.
Thank you,
Santosh Dawara.
