CONFIG_ETH_NATIVE_POSIX_STARTUP_SCRIPT_USER

Username to run the host startup script

Type: string

Help

By default the startup script is run as a root user. Set here the username to run the script if running it as a root user is not desired. Note that this setting is only for startup script and not for the setup script. The setup script needs to be run always as a root user.
