Dear Sir/Madam:

I do these steps as root user on fedora 14 as follows:

#tar -xvfj ptxdist-2011.10.1.tar.bz2
#cd ptxdist-2011.10.1
#./configure

and get the messages as follows:

..............
checking for patch... /usr/bin/patch
checking whether /usr/bin/patch will work... yes

configure: creating ./config.status
config.status: creating Makefile

ptxdist version 2011.10.1 configured.
Using '/usr/local' for installation prefix.


#make
#make install

from the first cmd to the last one , I donot have any error message,but I get an error when I want to setup ptxdist.

#ptxdist setup
ptxdist:error:refusing to run PTXdist as root

So how can I correctly install ptxdist on fedora 14,please give me some help.Thx.
I am looking forward for your reply.

yours sincerely,
Vanlos Wang
