Dropping privileges for drones. #199

Open johnnykv opened 10 years ago

Currently the drones does not drop privileges, this is because after dropping privileges we cannot bind to ports < 1024 anymore. A workaround on the linux platform could be to set _cap_net_bindservice=+ep on bin/beeswarm which tells the kernel that this binary can bind to ports < 1024 without root.
