            		--libexecdir=$(PREFIX)/lib/dcc \
            		--mandir=$(PREFIX)/man \
            		--homedir=/var/lib/dcc

		useradd -m -U -d /var/dcc -s /bin/sh dcc

		chown -hR dcc:dcc /var/dcc
		# start dccifd as dcc user (you could add this to /etc/rc.local for system startup, or see your OS manual)
		su - -c '/var/dcc/libexec/dccifd' dcc
