Hiya Kurt...

 KH> I am running Synchronet on Ubuntu and have had trouble with file
 KH> ownership. I usually have to chown -R ftn:ftn /sbbs at various times.
 KH> when I installed the software, sbbsecho ran as ftn and sbbs ran as
 KH> root.  Once I changed sbbs to run as ftn user, everything worked.

I checked the sbbs/exec folder and did a ls-l and all executables were
listed pi:pi so I know sbbsecho isn't running as root.  I am not running
sbbs but using sbbsecho standalone.  binkd is run as pi and in the group pi.

I've edited all the bash scripts I use here to do a chown while they are
running to make sure everything in the folders are pi:pi.  The test is
tonight.

Thanks

.
