Hi.
The start-stop-daemon option --user only checks for a process running as
the specified user, but does not change to that user anymore, if you use
it with --start.
For this purpose the option --chuid exists.
distributed-net-pproxy was running as root since the change in
start-stop-daemon, so all buffers are owned by root.
You have to include a preinst script, which changes the owner of all the
buffers, so distributed-net-pproxy will not fail on restart.
Maybe this issue was also the problem of Bug #134599, as it seems, that
after the logrotate distributed-net-pproxy was restartet as user nobody,
which was not able to read the buffers thus causing distributed-net-pproxy
to close all sockets. But this is only a wild guess, this clearly needs
reinvestigation.
Svn.

distributed-net-pproxy has been removed from Debian. It has not been
maintained and it was out of date so severly that it didn't properly
work anymore.
