I think I'm trying to avoid running under sudo. Yes, that works, but must have other security implications? |

In researching the problem, the workaround I posted was cribbed from other distros which have a 'shadow' group. This is why I posted here, to see if this is common (as I now suspect), why isn't it used in Gentoo? A decision must have been made at some point? |

Ultimately, the apache:apache user will be running this code. I expect to have to add apache to the group shadow to be able to use the app. I don't want apache in the sudoers file, nor do I think it'd solve the problem, since my user is in the sudoers file but only can access /etc/shadow when running under sudo. I don't see this as a way to launch my webserver..?? |

I admit I'm flying in the dark, as is usual. I could be totally wrong. |
