I have a question about best practices. I usually have the shell for user cyrus set to /bin/false. So to run a reconstruct, I have to change this to /bin/bash (or something) first in order to be able to log in as cyrus and execute the reconstruct command. On the other hand, this is only the second time I've had to run reconstruct in 12 years of using cyrus. What do most people do about this? Is cyrus an ordinary user who can log in by default, or is it best practice to have shell /bin/false, as I do with most other daemon users?
We use user cyrus all the time. Not only for reconstruct, but also for tools like mbexamine, chk_cyrus etc.
