If the server is where the SQL database is, then you don't need to on the client as it's pulling the data from the server. RDAirplay and the other applications on the client ideally, should be connecting to the server remotely with a non root account for security reasons. By default I believe the account rd is created with a standard password, and has sufficient privileges to do what it needs to do to play out and import new audio files for the carts but is not an admin/root.
