Root user using ADSM
1999-12-10 18:13:15
I'm running the ADSM backup/archive client for HP-UX, backing up to an AIX ADSM
server. As far as I know, only a root user is able to run a succesful backup on
the client. I wouldn't like root executing the backups due to the restricted
access that we have for this user, instead I would like to create a user able
to launch the backups. I took a look at the ADSM documentation and I found out
that it is possible to create an ADSM authorized user for this purpouse with
the following properties:
- Runs with a real uid of 0 (root)
- Owns an executable whose owner's execution permission bit is set to s.
I'm looking for a way to avoid giving my user a real uid of 0, is there any way
to create a user that can run adsm backups without being root?
Thanks in advance
