Hi, |

I am trying to run syslog-ng v1.6.8 without root privileges, under |
4 |
dedicated account. All goes fine, except messages from kernel buffer |
5 |
/proc/kmsg. I'm not surprised, because /proc/kmsg have permission bits |
6 |
set to 0400 and owner:group to root:root. As I know in good old |
7 |
app-admin/sysklogd same goal accomplished by actually running two |
8 |
processes: one which reads from /proc/kmsg under root privileges & |
9 |
another one which reads from /dev/log and does everything else under |
10 |
dedicated non-root account. May be we need to ask syslog-ng authors to |
11 |
implement the same scheme as in sysklogd? |
12 |
|

Thanks in advance. |
