Just to clarify, I know about linux system users and group, mysql-users, and the users inside rivendell itself, so I don't need information about that. I just don't understand for what the rduser (in /etc/passwd) with password is necessary. So a rivendell installation with more then one host doesn't use ssh or something to communicate via linux-user between the hosts, right? > So the password in rd.conf does matter, in that it has to exist, but it > doesn't matter what it's set to. As far as I understand the wiki article, it's just there because of historical reasons..
