Running the HP-UX AAA Server as a Non-Root User

Some organizations require network server processes to run as the non-root user. Use the following steps to run the Mobile AAA server as a non-root user:

Login to the system as the root user.
Use the following command to start the RMI objects as the aaa user:
su - aaa -c /opt/aaa/diameter/remotecontrol/rmistart.sh

Use the following command to start Tomcat as the www user:

su - www -c "export JAVA_HOME=/opt/java1.4; /opt/hpws/tomcat/bin/startup.sh"

Point your web browser to: http://<hostname>:8081/aaa/diameter




	NOTE: Any log files created when the Mobile AAA server was running as the root user will not be accessible after performing this procedure. To view these logfiles, change the ownership to match the UID of when the log files were created. See the chown man page for more information (man chown).
