Re: [TCLUG:14678] running rc5 crackers

Do people run the dnetc program as root? I do not and would not
recommend it. I am assuming this because of the logs in the root
directory, but my assumption may be wrong. If not, su to a less powerful
user before running:

rc.local:
su - dnetuser /home/dnetuser/rundnetc.sh

rundnetc.sh:
cd /home/dnetuser
/usr/local/bin/dnetc > /dev/null

after making sure dnetuser can run dnetc and dnetc is configured to be
in it's silent mode with logging. As Callum suggested, 'tail -f' the
logfile to see how you are doing.
