Package: rsyslog Version: 3.16.2-1~Xk2c1 Severity: important*** Please type your report below this line *** I have rebuild rsyslog from source on ubuntu hardy and used it as replacement for sysklogd since debian switched to it as default. I now came across a difference between sysklogd and rsyslog. The former does create a system user which owns the logfiles the later not. That resulted in logfiles been owned by "dnsmasq" here because: 1. i purged sysklogd, the system user got removed. 2. installed rsyslog, not creating a user. 3. installed dnsmasq which created a new system user with the first free uid which was 101. I think to be a fully drop in replacement for sysklogd, rsyslog has to create the same system user as sysklogd.
Which system user are you talking about? sysklogd on Debian doesn't create any system user? Cheers, Michael -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth?
