If you run from the script: systemd-run -P -p DynamicUser=yes -p CacheDirectory=mywrapper sh -c read This will do all the setup with the symlink to /var/cache/private, and then just hang. While the process is hanging, you can do the processing you need in the cache directory, including populating it with whatever you want. Once your processing is over, you can kill the systemd-run process. On subsequent calls to systemd-run, the files you added will just be recursively chmod()ed by systemd, so you should just get back the directory populated with your files with the correct permissions. -- Antoine Pietri _______________________________________________ systemd-devel mailing list systemd-devel@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/systemd-devel
