0000140: User created from rpm install script getting deleted
Hello everyone,

I am installing SOGo. The rpm apparently creates the user "sogo" which is used to run the service. After reboot the user is removed by COS (my guess ... ldapsync).

Is there a work around?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Kevin

The work around is to create a user in the "system" range of UID's (below 500). Upper ranges are reserved for LDAP users only. You can manually add a system account for this purpose with the '-r' flag

See the following how to

"useradd -mnr sogo" did the trick. Thanks


Now ... how do I change the bug report status to "Resolved"?

@kbrault - I have changed your bug tracker account from "reported" to "updater". You should now be able to update bugs (I think).

@timb80 - I have changed your account to "developer". You should now be able to pretty much anything :-)

There are a number of different "roles" in the bug tracker. I want to keep these roles consistent across the entire developer infrastructure, notably the build system and SVN. For this reason, you may see your bug tracker role change in the near future!
