And with 1.3.38 it is impossible to simply get the commandline help if no useraccount 'vdr' is present on the system and the user doesn't know the '-u' switch ...

The attached patch (or something similar) should help.

Hmm... this makes things much more complicated than it is needed ... :)

If Klaus implements the '-u' switch like he has explained earlier in this thread your patch is not needed. No detection of special users is needed, because it uses by default the current user.

Just my two cents ... Oliver
