Hi I run a mirror service where for gentoo I run rsync as a daemon. Currently the daemon runs root to get the 873 port opened. And when transfers then run, they run as nobody.
I would like the rsync daemon to connect to 873 (as root) then possibly do a chroot and then run always as something else than root (maybe nobody). It this advisable? Is it possible? best regards keld -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
