[cli-users] How to tell what account you are running in?

[siegfried <si...@heintze.com>]

How do I determine what account I am running? I have cygwin cron jobs
populating a Microsoft Access database. Simultaneously, httpd/cli is
querying that database. Which account are the latter using?

 

The problem is that the cron jobs are running in the administrator account
and are creating a .mdl (MSAccess lock file) that httpd/cli cannot open
(because httpd is running in some other account?)

 

Thanks,

Siegfried

I looked in my list of users and I see no such users.

Hi Siegfried

I think that even if the web server was running the same user account as
access, you could not open access anyway, by default access is mono-user. 

I think you might have some options to enable that within access, but I can
not help you with that, I'm not an access specialist. 

Btw if you want to know what user account is running, there is a tool in the
ressource kit called whoami (like the unix one), just call it from a test
cron job. 

Have a nice day
