freeradius 2.1.6 radiusd process user

[ramesh p]

Hi All,
I have installed freeradius 2.1.6 on my linux box. But radiusd process is
running as root.
root     25027     1  0 04:23 ?        00:00:00
/usr/local/fnmt/freeradius2/sbin/radiusd
I saw in older versions 1.1.6 running as nobody user/group.
Is it fine if we run as root user? or we need to run as 'radius' user? How
to that change. Please suggest.
Thanks,
Rams.
