Re: [Ltib] Root owned files in the merge directories...

[Stuart Hughes]

Hi Peter,

You can't for the NFS area.  You should make this as your normal user.
When you finally build a RAMDISK or JFFS2 image, it'll get squashed to
be owned by root.

If this is not what you need, you'll need to edit the spec file for ssh.
What are you trying to do?

Regards, Stuart
