  • 1.  Running IS as a different user

    Posted 02/11/04 04:35 PM

    We’re running AIX, and when we installed our IS, we had some miscommunication, and it got installed by root. The end result is that root is the only one who can start the server up.

    At the time, we didn’t have time to do a reinstall, so we did a bunch of development on it, and eventually went to production still running as root. We’d like to secure it now, but it’s obviously not as simple as just running server.sh as a different user.

    Does anyone know what permissions we have to change in order for the server to run properly under a different user id?

    Thanks

    Greg,

    Assume that you are not using Broker, all you have to do is to chown to another user for the wmroot\IntegrationServer. That will do it.

    Super - thanks.

    I was worried that something under there needed to stay owned by root.
