Issue/Introduction

What user is running the Symantec DLP software on RHEL?

Resolution

If the service is presently running, you can find the user with the below command

grep `ps -eo "%U %c" | grep SymantecDLP | awk '{print substr($1,1, length($1)-1)}'` /etc/passwd

 

Alternatively, you can see from the config file which user the services will run as after service start

grep 'RUN_AS_USER=' /etc/init.d/SymantecDLPDetectionServerService
