That depends. Were you root when you installed them? What about the permissions on /usr/local/htdig/db/? Can you create files in there without root privileges? Do you have adequate free space on that disk volume? Do you have disk quotas which might limit how much stuff you can put on that volume using your unprivileged account? It should be possible to run any of these programs without being root, but only if you have write access to the directory specified by database_dir in your config file (or at compile time if you don't define database_dir explicitly). -- Gilles R.
