Running client/bareos-fd as root? #82

Closed wucke13 closed 3 years ago

wucke13 commented 3 years ago

Hi, I would like to run bareos-fd in it's container as root. However, if I add user: root to it's section in the docker-compose.yml, bareos still ends up running as user bareos. This creates issues, as some file in my backup can only be accessed through the root user. What would be the solution for this issue? Does bareos itself drop the privileges by running it self under another user?

HI @wucke13 this part is defined inside CMD command of each dockerfile (bareos -u bareos) it could be easily modified with an env variable through docker-compose, at least for root user :) So finaly it could be great to integrate #77 which is related i think, i have to think about that
