unique username/password for each stone (from Mariano) #17

  • All my scripts (not only those stone-creation-startup-related) are prepared to: 1) Run with a particular (specified) OS user 2) Have a particular Gemstone user (I don't use DataCurator anywhere). Each stone has a similar DataCurator user + password.

Why this? Mostly because of security. I have each stone running with its own OS user, with the >> folders, logs, pids, locks, etc created with that OS user. I mean...all unix permission marking >> stuff tried to be for that user.

Use GEMSTONE_USER_NAME plus env var(s) for passwords ... see https://github.com/GsDevKit/gsApplicationTools/issues/27
