Is there any work in allowing syslog-ng to: a) change its uid and gids to non-root after is has started and opened the appropriate inputs. b) chroot itself after it has started an opened the appropriate inputs. (a) is simple to implement. (b) requires a little more thought. e.g. it should be smart enough to know that if a destination file is under /var/log/logfiles/$DAY if it chroots to /var/log it should try to open /logfiles/$DAY and not /var/log/logfiles/$DAY. -- Aleph One / aleph1@underground.org http://underground.org/ KeyID 1024/948FD6B5 Fingerprint EE C9 E8 AA CB AF 09 61 8C 39 EA 47 A8 6A B8 01
