user "nobody" needs rights?
I am using SLES9, and have some web devs getting our website ready. They are trying to create a php form that calls sendmail (well, the sendmail "wrapper" provided by postfix) to send an email.
There is a PHP test script that, when run from the command line,
successfully sends email using the PostFix supplied sendmail command
--- BUT when run from the browser, the email does not get sent,
though it reports success.
The only difference between the two scenarios is "who" sends email -
the "nobody" user when the script is executed by the webserver, or a
dev/root/priveledged user when the script is executed from the bash
prompt.
This PROBABLY means the postfix "sendmail wrapper" (ie
/usr/sbin/sendmail) is restricted from sending emails as the "nobody"
user.
I think.
What must I do to give the "nobody" user rights? Or, is my analysis off base?
