This is a feature/shortcoming in the -u option for sa-learn when using non-SQL based bayes storage modules. That is why the documentation states: You can use this option to specify users in a virtual user configuration. Otherwise the bayes path, if unset via dbpath or in a .cf file is expanded to be in $ENV{HOME} which in your case is /root/. I added the -u specifically for BayesSQL users, since it doesn't refer to an actual directory on the filesystem. Feel free to file a bug report, but honestly it might end up being a documentation patch saying that -u is not effective for DBM storage. BTW, you can easily accomplish the same thing as root using su -c or similar mechanisms. Michael
