>             Project: Qpid
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: C++ Broker
>    Affects Versions: qpid-cpp-0.34
>         Environment: Debian/Ubuntu
>            Reporter: Morgan Lindqvist

> When using the testing PPA on https://launchpad.net/~qpid to install qpidd the daemon is executed using the user id and group id "root".
> The user id and group id that should be used is "qpidd".
> This will significantly reduce the risk the the daemon can be used to get root access on the server.
