Setting up for daemons z/OS UNIX System Services Planning GA32-0884-00 |

A daemon process is a process that runs in the background and is not associated with any particular terminal or user. Daemons have superuser authority and can issue authorized functions such as setuid(), seteuid() and spawn() to change the identity of a user's process. When setting up daemons, security levels need to be taken into consideration. |
