« on: April 06, 2012, 03:34:37 PM »
Hello,

with opening the program amule we getting this error warning here

Warning! you are running amule as root
Doing so it not recommended for security reasons,
and you are advised to run amule as an normal user instead


How we will do this! need to create another acc on server


Thanks in advance

Running any program as root is NOT recommended!

In a terminal type adduser name to add a new user. Maybe you need to add this new user to some group after. For this and for further documentation read here: http://www.linux4beginners.info/node/managingusers
