> In current code, we must grant remote login by root. And slave daemon is run
> under root.
> But we can't remote login by root in recent versions of Amazon's AMIs. As
> root login and daemons run under root are not safe, you know.
> My patch is enables to run setup and spawn slave under non-root account like
> ec2-user, hudson, jenkins, ...
> Still some commands needs root privilege, so you must install sudo into AMI.
> Some cases you may have to edit /etc/sudoers file.
> {code:title=the part of /etc/sudoers}
> ec2-user ALL = NOPASSWD: ALL
> jenkins ALL = NOPASSWD: ALL
> {code}
> They are already setup if you use Amazon's standard AMI and you login with
> ec2-user account.
