Summary: Review Request: dircproxy - IRC proxy server https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=197740 ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2006-07-10 17:56 EST ------- The daemon can be run as any user, but it won't work for multiple users unless run as root. The "switch_user" feature does not run the daemon as non-root, it only briefly seteuid's to display another name: 6.1 How do I change what username is presented on IRC? The obvious answer is to run dircproxy under that username, but that doesn't help if you're proxying for multiple people. Another option is to use one of the many fake ident daemons to return a false answer for you. There's also a third option, which is available to those running dircproxy as root (either as a daemon or from inetd). You can use the 'switch_user' configuration file directive. This ensures that the connection to the server appears as from whatever local username you give it (by seteuid()ing to that briefly) while the dircproxy process remains as root. Exactly what should be done here, I dunno. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
