No problem with nonroot environments. I used this in combination with the HP Testdrive to test NewsCache on variuos platforms. For compiling use:
1. socket:
./autogen
./configure --prefix=/home/none/build-test
make
make install
2. NewsCache
export LIBRARY_PATH=/home/none/build-test/lib
export CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH=/home/none/build-test/include
./autogen
./configure --prefix=/home/none/build-test
make
make install
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/stb/
Edit etc/newscache.conf and modify
CachePort #12000
SpoolDirectory /home/none/build-test/var/newscache
PidFile /home/none/build-test/var/run
Create the necessary directories and run Newscache with sbin/newscache. Logging is done to syslog. You can change this to files.
Best regards

Betreff: Running without superuser privileges
Is it possible to run newscache without superuser privileges? If so, what
configuration options should be used facilitate logging? I can't seem to get
it up and running and it doesn't seem to output any logging info.
Thanks
