I am trying to secure a Linux server on which hudson 
(https://hudson.dev.java.net/) is running. I have installed hudson and can 
make any modification I wish.

Hudson, the apps, runs as the user hudson.

Here is my problem:
If I don't fully open the directories and files  that hudson tries to read 
and write to (chmod o+rwX), it fails. Yet I can "su - hudson" and cat the 
files and create new files and directories in those directories.

For a moment, I assumed that it was running as a different user, but the 
files it creates are owned by the user "hudson" ‽

I have googled about this, but most articles I find about hudson and 
security revolves around the web access, not the processes and the file system.

Anybody here has experience with this ?


Thanks.
