UserRC is a small program which is run from the FreeBSD rcng system to dispatch users rc scripts at bootup/shutdown.
A feew checks are made on the scripts before they are executed:
- Is the script owned by right person?
- Are the file permissions restrictive enough?
A user's RC files are placed in $HOME/rc.d and UserRC, after forking for the user, sets its UID to be that of the owner of the rc script.
Installation
