greentown Posted August 5, 2013 Report Share Posted August 5, 2013 Let's say that it's not best practice. To run it as another user, first you will have to change the ownership of everything under your .sync folder to the new user you would use. Then, you just login as another user, for example "pi" and run it.OTOH, since you're asking these question it may be easier for you to get it from a repository, which will take care of most of your issues.

supermario3 Posted August 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2013 I removed every sign of my installation and I installed btsync using the repository. Now I have btsync-daemon running as root. I don't think I solved my problem... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raveur Posted September 5, 2013 Report Share Posted September 5, 2013 How can I have btsync running as "normal" user automatically when i power on my rpi ?You just need to edit your config file and include something like this:// DAEMON_UID=regular_user// DAEMON_UMASK=0022Yes, you actually put those settings inside comments (which I find very weird).
