Subject:   Can i set ircd-hybrid to run as a specified user?
Message-ID:  <002301bfda36$f3ed0830$0271a8c0@anonymousdaemon.org>

Does anyone know of a start up script that would start ircd(hybrid) to run
at boot as a nologin user i have created called ircdaemon?

if i start it as my normal user, its fine.
but if I start it as root, it runs as a user on my server, which I don't
want.

I'm thinking there has to be a way to run the daemon as whomever i choose
through a shell script at boot.
Anyone have any ideas?

thanks
Daniel
