Allow running as non-root user with minimum required capabilities:
- Enable with
user
configuration or--user
command line options. - Example
udev
rules support hotplug with non-root user.
Important: The root user is required if the
chronyd
clock control script example is used to
restart chronyd
. This restriction is removed in version
3.8.0 by the addition of a helper. See Add a Privileged Helper.
