retitle 690481 Can't run salt-master and salt-minion as different users on the same machine forwarded 690481 https://github.com/saltstack/salt/issues/1488 thx

The problem is that salt-minion and the salt-master use the same directory for different purpose. On startup the salt-minion as well as the salt-master both check the specified directories and adjust the permissions of these directories. If you run the salt-master as non-root and the start the minion afterwards the directory permissions will be changed back to root. As a workaround eiter change the shared directories of salt-minion/salt-masters or run both under the same user. cheers, Ulrich -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
