The wiki suggests you give the user a shell but I didn't think that was a good idea. So that's my work around :-) There is probably a better way to do the whole thing but I don't know what it would be... :-) On Sep 29, 2012 12:18 PM, "Noah Slater" wrote: > Sorry, I specifically meant providing a shell to the user in the init.d > script. > > On Sat, Sep 29, 2012 at 4:27 PM, Keith Gable >wrote: > > > Not sure if I follow you.
