Subject: [ptxdist] [PATCH] chrony: fix runtime with busybox init
Date: Sat, 19 Jun 2021 17:26:07 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210619152607.858107-1-bruno.thomsen@gmail.com> (raw)

Run as root if busybox init is used (INITMETHOD_BBINIT) so
runtime directory is read and writable. When running under
systemd (INITMETHOD_SYSTEMD) use chrony user.

A busybox init system typically ends up with a turtle shell
security architecture where systemd is used when defense in
depth is needed.
