Hey all,

I've got this little problem..  I'm running DGD 1.2 with LPMud (adapted to DGD 1.1.. but this really doesn't matter..)  on a Red Hat 7.1 linux system. So, whenever i run dgd using the command

./driver ../mud/lpmud.dgd

everything works nicely, and perfectly.. EXCEPT - (i'm logged in as root user,) DGD runs as a root user, so whenever a new file is created by dgd (i.e. a new player,)  the user and group permissions are set to root:root.  This is frustrating.. because then I have a harder time editing the files remotely..

I need DGD to run itself as a different user:group.  At the very least, as a different group only.  Does anyone know how to do this?  Is there a command in linux that i can do to change the user:group that an application runs under, or is there a place in the code that specifies this?  Thankyou very much.

-Andrew
