>Chapter 1. Introduction</H1
> The Debian base-passwd package contains the master versions of
 <TT
CLASS="FILENAME"
>/etc/passwd</TT
> and <TT
CLASS="FILENAME"
>/etc/group</TT
>.
 The update-passwd tool keeps the entries in these
 master files in sync on all Debian systems. They comprise only "global
 static" ids: that is, those which are reserved globally for the
 benefit of packages which need to include files owned by those users
 or groups, or need the ids compiled into binaries. Since this
 reservation is a serious restriction, these ids must be allocated by
 the base-passwd maintainer on request. In general, packages should
 avoid requesting such ids where possible and instead allocate system
 users or groups dynamically. See Debian Policy for further details.
 The Debian Policy Manual reserves ranges for these global static users
 and groups, but it makes no attempt to allocate individual numbers or
 define their purposes. This document fills that gap by describing the
 purposes of the individual entries in these master files.
 This is a work in progress. Items in need of feedback are marked with
 the "HELP" tag. Please send mail to
 <CODE
CLASS="EMAIL"
>&#60;<A
HREF="mailto:base-passwd@packages.debian.org"
>base-passwd@packages.debian.org</A

 Debian bug tracking system if you have more information.

>daemon</DT
><DD
>	 Some unprivileged daemons that need to be able to write to some
	 files on disk run as daemon.daemon (portmap,
	 atd, lambdamoo,
	 mon, and others). Daemons that don't need to
	 own any files sometimes run as nobody.nogroup instead; it is
	 generally better practice to use a dedicated user, and more
	 complex or security-conscious daemons certainly do this. The
	 daemon user is also handy for locally installed daemons,
	 probably.
	 	 LSB 1.3 lists daemon as legacy, and says: "The 'daemon' UID/GID
	 was used as an unprivileged UID/GID for daemons to execute under
	 in order to limit their access to the system. Generally daemons
	 should now run under individual UID/GIDs in order to further
	 partition daemons from one another."

	 Traditionally this job is taken by a printer daemon instead
	 which will only need to run in this group.
	 	 The lpr system keeps its spool directories
	 owned by lp/lp. Its daemon and frontend tools (through setuid)
	 run as user root.

	 </DD
><DT
>mail</DT
><DD
>	 Mailboxes in <TT

	 MTAs and MUAs.
	 </DD
><DT
>news</DT
><DD
>	 Various news servers and other associated programs (such as
	 suck) use user and group news in various
	 ways. Files in the news spool are often owned by user and group
	 news. Programs such as inews that can be used
	 to post news are typically sgid news.

>proxy</DT
><DD
>	 Like daemon, this user and group is used by some daemons

	 delegated to someone without full root permissions?
	 	 HELP: Is that right? Amanda reportedly uses this, details?
	 </DD
><DT
>operator</DT
><DD
>	 Historically, the operator user account was used by system
	 operators with low privilege to dump filesystem backups to tape,
	 and was in the root group so that it could do this. In Debian,
	 the use of a utility such as sudo to gain
	 privilege is preferred over such highly-special-purpose
	 accounts, and the operator user is no longer created by default.
	 It had uid 37.
	 	 The operator group is used by dump -n to
	 notify logged-in operators via wall when it
	 requires operator attention. This is a historical use, and new
	 applications should not behave this way. (If nothing else, the
	 group should be configurable.)

	 Some mailing list programs may run as this user as well.
	 </DD
><DT
>irc</DT

	 <CODE
CLASS="FUNCTION"

	 on startup.
	 </DD
><DT
>gnats</DT
><DD
>	 Used by gnats. This has a statically

	 cumbersome to change now.
	 </DD
><DT
>nobody, nogroup</DT
><DD
>	 Daemons that need not own any files sometimes run as user nobody
	 and group nogroup, although using a dedicated user is far
	 preferable. Thus, no files on a system should be owned by this
	 user or group.
	 	 (Technically speaking, it does no harm for a file to be owned by
	 group nogroup as long as the ownership confers no additional
	 privileges, that is if the group and other permission bits are
	 equal. However, this is sloppy practice and should be avoided.)
	 	 If root-squashing is in use over NFS, root access from the
	 client is performed as user nobody on the server.

	 like if you want to give some users in the group direct access

	 	 Since pmount (the original implementor of
