Jon Sime resolved TS-3288. -------------------------- Resolution: Fixed Documentation of user ID restriction was confirmed to reflect the reality of the code. > Document user restrictions of proxy.config.admin.user_id > -------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: TS-3288 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-3288 > Project: Traffic Server > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Documentation > Reporter: Karl Richter > Assignee: Jon Sime > Fix For: Docs > > > The documentation of `proxy.config.admin.user_id`, e.g. at > > http://trafficserver.readthedocs.org/en/latest/reference/configuration/records.config.en.html#proxy-config-admin-user-id > doesn't contain any statement on restrictions for valid effective users, > except that root is forbidden if not bypassed. They must exist because > specifying a user the same entry in `/etc/passwd` like `nobody` except a uid > and gid differing by 1 causes requests to be rejected after > `bin/trafficserver restart`. > The consequence of {{--with-group}} and {{--with-user}} of {{configure}} > should be mentioned as well, as well if there's none. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
