Do not check for root privileges #9

Closed ioj closed 7 years ago

ioj commented 7 years ago

If I remember correctly, using a promiscuous mode on an interface may be enabled for unpriviledged users by a kernel option (or was it ACL? don't remember). Please research it if you can and if my statement is true -- remove that root check.

Proper group permissions would also be way to run namescore by non root. I am not checking root anymore.
