[B.A.T.M.A.N.] running batman as non-root

Hi,

I'm running batman (experimental) on a debian linux as root but want to access the debug levels (batmand -c -b -d 1) from within a apache that is not running as root.

batman actually checks the user id and does not allow to run as non-root users. also when I disable the check, batman can not access the /var/run/batman.socket except when I change the access modes from command line. but after each start of batman, the access rights are restricted to root.

Is it possible to also support non root access for batmand -c -b -d 1?

Regards Stephan
