.SH USER AUTHORIZATIONS

.sp

.LP

You can use \fBRBAC(5)\fR to authorize otherwise non-privileged users to manage

the \fBlighttpd14\fR service.

To allow a user to manage the \fBlighttpd14\fR service states, add a line to

\fB/etc/user_attr\fR of the form:

.sp

.in +2

.nf

<username>::::type=role;profiles=Lighttpd 14 Administration,All

.fi

.in -2

.sp

.LP

Where <username> is the name of the user being granted the authorisation. If the user already has an entry in \fB/etc/user_attr\fR, add the "Lighttpd 14 Administration" profile to his or her entry.

.sp

.RE

.SH CONFIGURATION OPTIONS

.sp

.LP

At this time, use of multiple Lighttpd worker processes is discouraged and is not supported by the Lighttpd community. From version 1.4.23 the supplied configuration file has the following line removed:

.sp

.in +2

.nf

server.max-worker = 4

.fi

.in -2

.sp

.LP

The result of this change is that by default, Lighttpd will be run with a single worker process
