[LIH] starting user owned processes from inetd

[sreangsu acharyya]

Hi,

 I want to start a network service from inetd but which should not be
owned by root. Is there anyway of doing it. One which I can think of is
to write a wrapper in c which will do a setegid() to some unprivilleged
user and then exec() to the process which I want to run.
        Any otherway of doing the same ?
