hi all earlier i inquired about running a process via inittab with an owner other than root. the suggestion of 'su - myuser -c mycommand' did the job very well.
i now have a similar question. i want to run the same process but i want the process to think that it's on a different directory. since mycommand reads files in /home/myuser/mydir. i thought that 'env -' might do the trick, but i was mistaken. env - PWD=/home/myuser/mydir su - myuser -c mycommand the command above does not reset PWD rather it alway refer to the directory where i ran env from. does anyone know how i can make this happen. tia please cc my email address since i'm not on the list. -- ^X^C q quit :q ^C end x exit ZZ ^D ? help shit .
