You can no longer start a session as root and then run as another user, was I think the gist of it.
well, that's what I read as well, but unfortunately it doesn't seem to be the whole answer.
Sophie has had to make a change to allow for this. This will also take effect in the glibc-2.0 version at some point. How this affects the libSAVI implementation I don't know. As you say I thought Amavis already did the child initialisation as $user (AFAIK you've never been able to share sessions between children anyway). What does it do after that ?
That depends on your setup. Up to now we've started amavisd as root, but had a different user and group set in /etc/amavisd.conf. That way it would drop privileges at a later point. Today I changed that on one of our servers so that it starts as the correct user right away. Alas, the problem remains:

Note that our software isn't really current: amavisd-new-20030616-p9 Module SAVI 0.15But it seems that the problem is the same with current versions? 3.94 glibc 2.0 does work for now, but of course I need a long-term solution.
