Yes just now i realized a point i missed "to run as a daemon".
One more help, according to the guide -
Quote:
Start Perceptive Content as a non-root user
There are security risks with running Perceptive Content under your root user account. Linux and UNIX
systems always start at the root user level. To start Perceptive Content as a non-root user, complete the
following steps.
Prerequisite Configure your Role Based Access Control (RBAC) or Access Control List (ACL), or
configure daemons to run on a non-root user account
1. When you install Perceptive Content, change the ownership of all files to <username>:bin, where
<username> is the user you want as the owner instead of root. The following example changes the
ownership of all files to the user imgnow.
chown -R imgnow:bin ./inserver
2. In the rc.local/init.d startup script, run the daemons as the user you created. In the examples in this
guide, the user is imgnow
How do i run the daemons as the non root user? what changes i have to make in rc.local/init.d ?

Hi,
I need to access a user's command history. However, the dilemma is that he is logged in and so his current history is not yet flushed to .bash_history file which gets flushed when he logs out. Is there a way I can still access his most recent history?
