Solaris does not have a "www" account although it does have a
"webservd" which does appear to own a file things:
blackhole$ grep webservd /var/sadm/install/contents
/var/apache2/logs d none 0755 webservd webservd SUNWapch2r
/var/apache2/proxy d none 0755 webservd webservd SUNWapch2r
It was created for use by the Apache 2.0 service.
make sure it is configured to run using the nobody user, or keep the www
user.
No! No one should be using the "nobody" account unless it is
to support NFS services:
blackhole$ grep nobody /etc/passwd
nobody:x:60001:60001:NFS Anonymous Access User:/:
nobody4:x:65534:65534:SunOS 4.x NFS Anonymous Access User:/:
The web server should use webservd (which it does by default with the
Apache 2.0 in Solaris 10). For Apache 1.0, there is a bug filed
already: 4806419
If you need an account for your web server, use webservd or create
a new one for it. That way, access to that service, its processes,
its configs and its data can be more easily controlled.
