  5. By default, collectd runs as root. Root privileges are required for some
  6. collectd plugins, namely dns and ping plugins.
  7. For more information, please referer to:
  8. ${HOMEPAGE}wiki/index.php/Category:Plugins_requiring_privileges
  9. If you do not use these plugins, it is recommended to run collectd daemon
  10. with unpriviliged user account, _collectd. Adjust your configuration with
  11. the following command:
  12. # rcctl set collectd user "_collectd"
  13. If you had previously run collectd as root using the rrdtool plugin,
  14. you should also change the ownership of /var/collectd to _collectd.
  15. # chown -R _collectd /var/collectd
