Instead of forcing users to configure lighttpd manually, make it an option. The current services.lighttpd.configText option can still be used for manual configuration, but if it is left blank (default) we'll use the new generated config file. The generated config file ensures that the server drops root priveleges and runs as the "lighttpd" user. It pulls in some new config params that can be set in configuration.nix (here with default values): services.lighttpd.document-root = "/srv/www" services.lighttpd.port = 80 services.lighttpd.extraConfig = "" # appended to the generated file And it enables access and error logging to the systemd journal.
