Configuring IBM Communications Server for Linux

Communications Server for Linux® requires a number of environment variables to be defined. Refer to the README file supplied with the server and ensure that all variables are correctly set, including LD_PRELOAD. Do not set the LD_PRELOAD variable globally.

To ensure that messages can be written to error logs, the user who starts the Client daemon process must be a member of the 'sna' group. Read the man page for ld.so for information about security issues associated with LD variables.
