cxs upload monitor use smtp rather than nobody?

Post by rebelOne »

Hello, when cxs detects files uploaded via web scripts and emails an alert it sends as user 'nobody'. Is there any way to have it send as root, or maybe configured smtp credentials so that I can dis-allow server wide, sending email as 'nobody'?

Thanks
Leighton

It can only send as nobody as that is the account ModSecurity runs under. I'll add the idea of using direct SMTP instead to the DEV list.

This open (--smtp) has now been added to v2.26. If you use --smtp emails will be sent via the localhost SMTP server instead of using sendmail.
