IMO, this is just a fact of life with packages such as RPM and deb. Files will be installed with ownerships and permissions based on the user it is expected to be run as. It should be fairly straight forward to run as any user if you install from the tarball, but note that bug 5035 suggests that the --user and --group options to slimserver.pl are broken. As discussed in that bug, it should be easy enough to run as any user with "start-stop-daemon" (in Debian) or "daemon" (in RH/Fedora). -- Fletch ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Fletch's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=529 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=41938 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/unix
