General Discussion / How does the web interface work ?
« on: October 01, 2015, 07:15:47 pm »
Hello,
I'd like to ask what is the logic behind the web interface of OPNsense ? The whole configuration is being performed by it's web interface. There are many commands that need root privileges to be executed, but i don't know how does the web interface do that. Is it using SUDO, the web server is running with root privileges or perhaps a dedicated daemon is listening to commands ?
I'm very curious.
Thanks in advance.
