Synology package running as root?

[zormuf]

Hello,

I've started using the synology package and I have noticed that it triggers the process to run as root on the NAS:

Code:

root      1040     1  8 11:30 ?        00:00:17 /var/packages/java8/target/ejdk1.8.0_121/linux_arm_sflt/jre/bin/java -jar /volume1/@appstore/MinimServer/lib/mserver.jar --noprompt --nohup

Would it be possible to have it run as a dedicated user? For example, the also excellent BubbleUPNP synology package does it perfectly:

Code:

bubbleu+ 31167     1 12 11:29 ?        00:00:35 /var/packages/java8/target/ejdk1.8.0_121/linux_arm_sflt/jre/bin/java -Xss256k -Djava.awt.headless=true -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true -jar BubbleUPnPServerLauncher.jar -nologstdout -logFileMaxSize 250000 -dataDir /var/services/homes/bubbleupnp/appData

That would be much more secure for the java process to run with much less privilege.

Keep up the good work!
