 ==== (Optional) Start without Root Privileges on Linux ====
-Normally Stages is started by the "root" user and then drops its privileges to the "stages" user after successful startup. In high risk environments, Stages can now also be started with a user id other than root. It can be enabled via the ''STAGES_NONROOTSTART''  variable in ''…/bin/rc.conf''. If enabled, the same user id starting the service will also be used to run the service.

 Please note that privileged ports below 1024 cannot be opened in this configuration, so the normal HTTPS port 443 cannot be used. The non-root setting can only be used when the Tomcat connectors are configured to use ports higher than 1024 and e.g. a reverse proxy is being used to allow normal access via HTTPS.
