For review, comments and possible application to HEAD. This code implements a warning when the postmaster is started as a high-privilege account on win32 (administrator or power users). Previously, postgresql has exited out on Unix when running as root - this is a similar check, with the following differences: * We do a ereport(WARNING) instead of exitting out. The reason for this is that we can expect there are win32 admins that will want to run the server with a high privilege account. Just sending a warning will permit this (say, when debugging etc, or if people are just too lazy to care), while clearly stating it's not a recommended way to do it. * The Unix check is directly in main.c. We cannot do this on win32, because at this stage we can only printf and exit. Win32 needs ereport. Consider when runinng as a service - before we have loaded up postgresql.conf and noticed we should write to the eventlog, we cannot inform the user in any way (stderr = /dev/null from a service by default). Therefor, the win32 check is in PostmasterMain. There might be a slightly better place to put it, not 100% sure about that.. The win32 specific code is mainly in the file security.c to go in src/backend/port/win32. //Magnus <<security.c>> <<admin_warning.patch>> ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
