Summary: Review Request: dircproxy - IRC proxy server https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=197740 jwilson@xxxxxxxxxx changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|NEEDINFO |ASSIGNED Flag|needinfo?(jwilson@xxxxxxxxxx| |) | ------- Additional Comments From jwilson@xxxxxxxxxx 2006-09-06 00:40 EST ------- (In reply to comment #7) > Whew! ok :) I know that feeling... Been a bit overloaded with other stuff, finally getting back to this... > 1. It appears to me that this proxy can be run as a non-root user and still be > able to do everything needed except use the "switch_user" command. (Read > another way, it looks like you only need to run dircproxy as root if you want > to use "switch_user".) Let's find a way to have this service start up as a > non-root user by default (perhaps just "nobody" as README.identd suggests). Won't work as nobody: # su nobody -c "/usr/bin/dircproxy -f /etc/dircproxyrc" This account is currently not available. I'll have to add an account w/a valid login shell, but that's easy enough. > It would seem to make sense to patch /etc/init.d/dircproxy to read values from > /etc/sysconf/dircproxy (as other init scripts do) to determine what user to > run under, etc. Will do. > 2. The release tag here, as this is a beta package, should be something like: > > 0.x.beta%{?dist} Fixed locally. > 3. rpmlint emits two warnings -- both of these are easy enough to fix. [...] > [build@zeus dircproxy]$ rpmlint dircproxy-1.2.0-0.beta.1.fc5.src.rpm > W: dircproxy mixed-use-of-spaces-and-tabs > [build@zeus x86_64]$ rpmlint dircproxy-1.2.0-0.beta.1.fc5.x86_64.rpm > W: dircproxy wrong-file-end-of-line-encoding Both fixed locally. Just need to fix up the bits to run as non-root, which I'll have to save for tomorrow... -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
