We installed zenoss, serviced and docker with root. Is there documentation showing how to run zenoss, serviced, and docker as an LDAP account and not root?

Hi,

We tried this also, but didn't succeed.
We ended up with docker/serviced running as root.
To be able to manage this (as we don't have the root password for security reasons) we had to add a lot of sudo rights for all kind of commands.
Also a list of directories where our normal user also has access on files owned by root.

I took a lot of time, but ended up with a manageable situation.
