Ok, I updated confluence. BTW, the systemd unit files on Confluence already used group Freeswitch. Op do 1 okt. 2015 om 18:09 schreef Bote Man <bote_radio@botecomm.com>:
This discussion concerns the documentation for building FreeSWITCH from source. The packages take care of themselves.
I wrote the part instructing users to chown freeswitch:daemon
If it's better to chown freeswitch:freeswitch then by all means change it, but then the group 'freeswitch' must be created, where 'daemon' already exists as one of the system groups.
I do not have the expertise to know which is the best choice, so I rely on those more knowledgeable than I.
Thanks.
Bote

why docs and not the users list?
The current package installer sets up the freeswitch group. I think it's quite alright to have it like this.

I discovered that FS must be started as root, then it quickly drops privileges. As to file owner and group, I’m not so sure.
It’s probably best to carry out this discussion on the FS-docs mailing list where others can see it.

Hello Bote,
On the Freeswitch Confluence you are the one who changed the 1.6 installation page adding this:
Because you most likely built FreeSWITCH™ as root you must now create the user 'freeswitch' in group 'daemon' and change the FS files to owner = freeswitch and group = daemon (to allow system services to interact with FS) and set the file mode appropriately
I'm building some things to make it easier for people to get Freeswitch running after make install (Jira FS-7910 if you're interested). Now there is some discussion if the daemon group is the correct one or the freeswitch group. Could you shed some light on 'allow system services to interact with FS'?
Thanks in advance, regards,
Niek
