John Vines updated ACCUMULO-1387:
---------------------------------
Priority: Minor (was: Major)
> RPM/DEB should create an accumulo user
> --------------------------------------
>
> Key: ACCUMULO-1387
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-1387
> Project: Accumulo
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: build
> Reporter: Christopher Tubbs
> Assignee: Christopher Tubbs
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 1.6.0
>
>
> Accumulo shouldn't be owned and run as root when using the RPM/DEB packaging.
> Instead, we should have a pre-install script that manages an accumulo user,
> in the same way that other services create users (httpd, postgres, mysql,
> ntp, sshd, ftp, and countless others follow this practice). Init scripts that
> launch accumulo services should suid to this user (using lsb start_daemon
> --user flag, preferred).
