260 The \fB-u user\fP setting does not currently operate like a
261 user logging in via the web. The user running roundup-admin
262 must have read access to the tracker home directory. As a
263 result the user has access to the files and the database
264 info contained in config.ini.
265
266 Using \fB-u user\fP sets the actor/user parameter in the
267 journal. Changes that are made are attributed to that
268 user. The password is ignored if provided. Any existing
269 username has full access to the data just like the admin
270 user. This is an area for further development so that
271 roundup-admin could be used with sudo to provide secure
272 command line access to a tracker.
