I'm messing around with Tiger security audits on my CentOS box, ensuring the server is fit for being online, well as close as it can get anyway.
I noticed a warning about the user
nobody
having /
as a home directory. I just can't figure out which directory it should "live in" so to speak. So where shall I put this fella? And how about ncsd
now we're at it?
I guess the questions really are: What is nobody
and ncsd
for? Which security risk does it impose for those users to have root set as their home directory? In an optimal environment, where would their home directories be?
