New to linux and was wondering what is the best practice for choosing a user and group for running applications? Is running an app as root the normal thing to do? Is running apps as root a bad thing? Huge security risk? Sorry for the stupid question but have seen different docs saying what to run a directory as. The RH docs say if you want to run directory on default ports run as root. Thats what I plan to do. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com
