1) How can you tell if a program is actually running as a non-privileged
user?
For example proftpd is configured to run as "User nobody" and "Group
nogroup" but when I do a "lsof|grep proftpd" "root" is listed as the
user.
proftpd 5884 root 0u IPv4 20170 TCP *:ftp (LISTEN)
2) If I create an in house damon and have it owned by user "nobody" but
start it from a shell as root which user actually owns this process?
Pointers to docs would be appreciated.
Thanks,
kent
