Hello Uwe: maybe you can use a sudo -u user_name on the init.d scripts that 
starts the daemon (need testing):

start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --pidfile $PIDFILE \
--exec "sudo -u user_name" $DAEMON -- $ARGS

Assunto: [Bacula-users] Running bacula-fd as non-root

Hi folks,

is it possible to run the bacula-fd as a non-root user (knowing full
well that certain parts of the system can't be backed up properly
then)?

All the best, Uwe
