[cPanelDavidG]

Just a head's up, the incompatibility between fileprotect and mod_ruid2 was resolved in 11.31.3.3.

Any idea when this will be available in other release tracks (not only EDGE)?

Thanks.

Just noticed a small bug in WHM 11.32.0 (build 1) (CURRENT tree).

We switched to mod_ruid2 on one of our servers using Easy Apache. Although the build finished without any problems, I noticed PHP scripts were still being executed as nobody. After some digging, I found that /var/cpanel/templates/apache2/vhost.default was missing mod_ruid specific entries:

[% IF vhost.user != 'nobody' -%]
<IfModule !mod_disable_suexec.c>
<IfModule !mod_ruid2.c>
SuexecUserGroup [% vhost.user %] [% vhost.group %]
</IfModule>
</IfModule>
<IfModule mod_ruid2.c>
RUidGid [% vhost.user %] [% vhost.group %]
</IfModule>
[% END -%]

After adding those lines and doing a /scripts/rebuildhttpdconf everything works fine.

This case has been resolved in version 11.32.1.4 and later (now propagating).

Is there any estimate date when mod_ruid2 be available in release version of cPanel?

[cPanelDavidG]

Coincidentally enough, this is something under active consideration as of today via Case 56043. I concur that this would be very beneficial. Not so much a "HowTo", but a guide of the Pros, Cons, and special concerns of note that you should be aware of when deploying mod_ruid2. I wouldn't have an ETA on this for you, but I share your sentiments there and would anticipate this being available in our documentation in the future.

Case 56043 is now propagating as part of EasyApache 3.11.2 (now on all update tiers).

[cPanelDavidG]

This functionality has now propagated to all update tiers so I am now closing this feature request thread and archiving it.

However, there was a lot of good discussion, many questions answered etc. in the course of this thread. I have taken that discussion and forked it to another thread which will remain open. You can find that thread at: http://forums.cpanel.net/f5/new-mod_...ty-274641.html
