Hi, For the last umpteen years, I did this in /etc/rc.local: su tim -c "/usr/bin/fetchmail -d 900" And likewise, for several other users, but with different time periods to minimise overlaps. But that won't work, anymore. The log returns: rc.local: fetchmail: open: /home/tim/.fetchmailrc: Permission denied My /home/tim permissions always were, and always will be: drwx------. 24 tim tim 4096 Jul 10 21:23 tim I won't be making the permissions more permissive. So, how do I do something equivalent? (That auto-starts the fetchmail daemon going any time the server is booted, and doesn't require the user to log on.) _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
