[Solved] Running as root

Added by prex over 6 years ago

Sorry for the noob question, but I am running 1.4.47 on a Pi Zero (Raspian/jessie). I start lighttpd as root, and I thought it dropped root privileges once it came up. How do I confirm that? A "ps -ef" shows "root", and a "ps -eo pid,euid" shows it's euid is 0. What is the best way to confirm it is not running as root? Thanks!

Nevermind, I didn't have a server.username in my conf.
