[Nfsen-discuss] two problems with starting/stopping nfsen 1.2.4 as a normal (non root user)

[Maurizio M. <mau...@da...>]

Hi,
I wanted to report two problems with starting/stopping nfsen as a normal
(non root user)

********** starting *************
In the file install.pl , I still had to  comment out the following line
in order to run the command as an ordinary user.

# need to run as root
#if ( !NfSen::root_process() ) {
#       die "nfsen setup wants to run as root\n";
#}


********* stopping *******************
In the nfsen.rc script I had to correct the test for the stop case as
follows:

--------- original ---------
  stop)

        if [ $RunUser != 'root' -o $RunUser != $RunUser ]; then
                echo "Hello '$RunUser'"
                echo "Only user '$USER' or 'root' wants to run $0
start/stop";
                exit 1;
----------------------------

-------corrected -----------
        if [ $RunUser != 'root' -a $RunUser != $USER ]; then
                echo "Hello '$RunUser'"
                echo "Only user '$USER' or 'root' wants to run $0
start/stop";
                exit 1;
-----------------------------
