I would like to further push for this to get fixed especially in light of the recent "security concerns" (overblown though they may be) we're going to be seeing more people running with this exact configuration.

I myself lowered my user account to normal to see if it was indeed feasible, only to find I couldn't establish a tunnel to check my mail.

  • status changed from new to closed.
  • resolution set to fixed.

Fixed. Two new options available:

  • Now it is possible to specify account name along with password.
  • Now it is possible to choose to run "without sudo".

NOTE In case of "run without sudo", "AlmostVPN Connections", "SMB Drives" and Tunnels with srcPort < 1024 become unavailable.
