Dear all,

I'm trying to set up Node.js and NPM on a multi-user-machine so it can be 
used for all users without requiring sudo.
I followed the instructions for backporting Node to Wheezy [0] and am now 
able to run nodejs (and node) for all users.
Since I do need npm, too, I did as recommended and used the install script 
given on the website.

But since npm gets installed to /usr/local, I can't execute it without 
sudo. Also, changing the ownership of /usr/local/… to my user (as often 
suggested) won't help, since other users need to access it, too.

Is there any documentation on how to do this correctly?

Thanks in advance,
Sebastian
