Hi,
We're running Bind 8.2.2P5 on a SCO 5.04 box and are attempting to run it
as a non-privileged user. We can start it from the command line as user
root and it will run as user named with this command: "/usr/local/etc/named
-u named"
However when we put the same line in the /etc/rc2.d/s85tcp file (where
named is usually started in 5.04), it tries to start then core dumps
leaving the following in the syslog:
Jun 20 10:03:54 xxx named[272]: listening on [x.x.x.x].53 (net1)
Jun 20 10:03:54 xxx named[272]: listening on [127.0.0.1].53 (lo0)
Jun 20 10:03:54 xxx named[272]: Forwarding source address is [0.0.0.0].1045
Jun 20 10:03:54 xxx named[274]: setgid(100): Operation not permitted
Jun 20 10:03:54 xxx named[274]: setgid(100): Operation not permitted
/usr/local/etc/named perms are:
-rwxr-x--- 1 root named 885512 Jun 19 09:31 named
excerpt of /etc/rc2.d/S85tcp:
<snip>
if [ -x /usr/local/etc/named -a -f /etc/named.conf ]; then
/usr/local/etc/named -u named; echo "named \c"
fi
<snip>
Anybody with SCO experience out there? We sure hate to start this thing
manually every boot.
Thanks
