Hi. Using the generic binary distribution I got what I thought was a working multi-user setup for nix on my opensuse connection (abandoning the rpm). I am not completely sure I have everything setup correctly, but let me try to outline what I think are the important steps...
1) nix-daemon running as root 2) nix-builders group setup with a bunch of nix-builder-n users (where n is a number between 1 and 10) 3) /nix/store is owned by root, group as nix-builders 4) user has the environment variable NIX_REMOTE="daemon" set The following error is occurring.... matt@linux-5ggd:~> nix-env -i hello installing `hello-2.9' error: opening lock file `/nix/var/nix/profiles/default.lock': Permission denied My assumption would be that nix-env actually wants to create a new profile for my user in /nix/var/nix/profiles/per-user/matt/ Is this assumption correct? Would it be acceptable to just copy the the default profile into my user directory and re-run? Any hints? Thankyou again. Matt.
