Re: svn commit: r524777 - /tomcat/connectors/trunk/jk/tools/jkrelease.sh
OK, I forgot, that I actually had a user and group named asf (I thought tar would ignore their non-existance). But I agree with William, that we should instead use a general purpose user and group exactly because of the reasons given by him. If a non-root user extracts the tarball, his ownership will be used, but many people unfortunately do it as root, because of the final installation steps and the end up with files created by root but owned by some foreign user/group which might exist on their local system. I never liked tarballs, which generated strange user ids when extracting them. root as the user sounds like a plausible default, bin as a group will work on most *nix systems (I shortly checked Solaris, SuSE Linux and people.apache.org), although the ideas what bin is used for seem to vary a lot. All in all I would suggest root:bin to. Regards, Rainer Mladen Turk wrote: Rainer Jung wrote: Hi Mladen, did you delete setting owner and group by accident from the release script?

So does bin. users has a radically different connotation, that if you change the perms to 664, everyone on the box has access to the unpacked file, depending on your umask etc. Sounds very dangerous to me. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi Mladen,
did you delete setting owner and group by accident from the release script?

I don't have user or group named asf, so the tar fails. What would be a purpose of it anyhow, and how would you ensure that the same user will exist on the users box? It should be root / bin or similar. Simple - if you unpack without root privilage, it unpacks as 'you'. If 'you' == root, it would try to restore mladen:staff or whatever your group is. Please back out this change and make an appropriate change :) - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
