You didn't answer to the first question, which I think is the major. You
have three possibilities:
1) run everything as root, it might work then but not recommended;
2) run everything as regular user with realtime-lsm module loaded and
properly setup;
3) run everything as regular user with pam security rlimits properly set;
Bye.
