UID of user "nobody" changes when upgrading to L2.4Pv4.0x
Applies to: NetMAX Professional Suite version 4.0x
address-suppressed
When upgrading a NetMAX Internet Server Suite or Professional product, you will find that the User ID (UID) of the "nobody" user has changed.

For compatibility reasons, we have changed the UID to match the one that RedHat's apache RPMs use. This may cause problems when upgrading a NetMAX that already has web sites configured on it with web documents or directories owned by the user.

To resolve any issues after an upgrade, you may need to run this command as root:

find / -uid 65534 -exec chown nobody {} \;
