Hello,
I want to exec “ped” with a norights user. I don’t want to allow the user to
save files, print into files,etc
If I try to exec ped with “su” command I’ve got the system message:
su norights -c /usr/photon/bin/ped
—>Ap:Unable to locate Photon
Is there a way to do something similar?
PD: This is a Test example, in fact I want to do not allow a user to print
with voyager into system files. Voyager is executed from a system command
from my gui application in a workspace blocked system…
Thanks,
David
Hello David
Is photon being started at startup or by typing in ph from command line
after logging in? I would appear that ped can’t talk to /dev/photon.
The app needs to talk to the Photon server in order to work.

Hello Rodney,
I start photon and autologgin from the rc.local:
LOGNAME=root
ph
Yes, it seems like ped can’t talk to /dev/photon. Maybe only root can do it?
It works with root…
In fact, I only need to start Voyager from my root session with no rights to
print into system and database files…
Is there another way to do it?

“chmod” should work with /dev/photon…
