## Path: Applications/Locate ## Description: Configuration of updatedb ## Type: yesno ## Default: yes # # Should updatedb (for locate) be started by cron.daily ("yes" or "no") # RUN_UPDATEDB=yes ## Type: string(nobody,root) ## Default: nobody # # updatedb has a parameter "--localuser". # It runs the "find" command as this user. Some people think this is a # security hole if set to 'root' (because some directory information can # be read which is normally protected). Others think it is useful to hold # all files in the database. # So if you want full information in locate db, set RUN_UPDATEDB_AS=root. # If you want security use RUN_UPDATEDB_AS=nobody. # RUN_UPDATEDB_AS=nobody ## Type: string ## Default: "" # # uptdatedb normally only scans local harddisks, but can include net paths # in the database as well. If you specify directories here, they will be # scanned. # UPDATEDB_NETPATHS="" ## Type: string ## Default: "/mnt /cdrom /tmp /usr/tmp /var/tmp /var/spool /proc /media /sys" # # uptdatedb can skip directories for its database. The following parameter # says which ones. # UPDATEDB_PRUNEPATHS="/mnt /cdrom /tmp /usr/tmp /var/tmp /var/spool /proc /media /sys" ## Type: string("",nobody) ## Default: "" # # Search net paths as ? (e.g. nobody) # UPDATEDB_NETUSER="" ## Type: string ## Default: "" # # updatedb can skip certain filesystem types completely # this sets the parameter "--prunefs" for updatedb # UPDATEDB_PRUNEFS=""
