1) Questions and Answers : Unix/Linux : Client only runs when started by root? (Message 18852)
Posted 29 Dec 2005 by John Tappin
Post:
Problem is normally caused due to the initial installation being perfromed as root and the files all then being owned by root.

I created a boinc account and set the folder and all its contents to be boinc read/write and run the job under user boinc. any profile will do but the default of root causes a number of interesting issues.

One problem I have yet to solve (although probably straightforward) is that when not running under root I can no longer attach to a remote client . . .
