1 This is userv, a trust boundary management service for Unix.
3 Using userv, one program can call another without either of them
4 having to trust the other completely. This enables applications such
5 as mail delivery, cron, user-provided CGI scripts and so forth to
6 operate without needing to be given root privilege.
8 For installation requirements and instructions please see INSTALL.
9 For usage documentation and discussion see the manual in spec.*
10 (various formats via Debiandoc-SGML in spec.sgml).

14 are managed by majordomo@chiark.greenend.org.uk. Send majordomo the
15 word `help' for instructions on how to subscribe and unsubscribe.

18 userv-maint@chiark.greenend.org.uk, or to the userv-discuss mailing
19 list if you are subscribed to it.
