That is an interesting theory. Unfortunately, with a workaround in hand (run with u but not -g), my motivation to get to the bottom of this is not sufficient to dig in from scratch. Permissions management is a critical part of any system daemon, and this could be the shadow of a bug with security implications. So I had hoped that it would attract more interest from those with pre-existing knowledge of the code. That it has not reduces my confidence in freeswitch somewhat, and makes me wonder how much of it is in a "don't touch that, it's working" state. Then again, I can't complain about the price... Anyway, I hope there is enough of a google trail here for other users to find the thread. Thanks, Mark
