I have read somewhere that it is a good idea to make you'r applications run under specific users, and not under root. How is the best way to configure such a user, as an example a user for the Apache httpd deamon (i got so far as to name the user httpd). Should it be in a specific group, have restricted rights and so on... -- Med venlig hilsen/Best regards, Søren Neigaard mailto:neigaard@e-box.dk -- "The only truly secure computer is one buried in concrete, with the power turned off and the network cable cut."
