Description Ronald Warsow 2006-09-05 15:56:49 UTC
Description of problem:
Starting system message bus: Unknown username "named" in message bus
configuration file


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
dbus-0.92-1.fc6
dhcdbd-1.16-1.fc6

How reproducible:
service messagebus restart

Steps to Reproduce:
1.service messagebus restart
2.
3.
  
Actual results:
Unknown username "named" in message bus configuration file

Expected results:
no error

Additional info:
this is a new installed system (last sunday)
check against FC5 /etc/password gives no *named* entry under FC6, but user named
is mentioned in
/etc/dbus-1/system.d/dhcdbd.conf:10:    <policy user="named">

my changes since installation:
- switched off some services, but IIRC the messages apears just after fresh  
installation.
- selinux off
- audit off
- updates since sunday

reassign to dhcdbd

Comment 3 Matthias Clasen 2006-09-05 17:10:31 UTC
bind does

%pre
if [ "$1" -eq 1 ]; then
   /usr/sbin/groupadd -g %{bind_gid} -f -r named >/dev/null 2>&1 || :;
   /usr/sbin/useradd  -u %{bind_uid} -r -n -M -g named -s /sbin/nologin -d
/var/named -c Named named >/dev/null 2>&1 || :;
fi;
:;

Comment 4 David Cantrell 2006-09-26 20:09:39 UTC
bind creates the named user account, but I don't know if dhcdbd needs to have a
policy for the named user.  It makes no sense to me, so I'm removing the policy
section in dhcdbd.conf for the named user.

Fixed in rawhide.
