transmission installed as "TimeMachine" user (UID 1000?)
Posted: 17 Jul 2021, 07:59
I have been using transmission for a while, and it is a little unstable in terms of its configuration file and making changes in my experience/opinion, so I revert to command line via SSH to TNAS to perform some efforts like restarting on config changes, reviewing json files, etc.
I was having issues (likely my own causing), but I reinstalled transmission today and now have notices that it is installed as user ID 1000 / TimeMachine and Group ID 1000 / TimeMachine and not the UID/GID typically used for transmission (1006/1006)
Is this an error on the app installer part?
I do not run TimeMachine, but fear that this is a security issue if running both services.
Thanks!
