Complaining about the shared files can mean that indeed it can't find
the shared files (permission  problems?), otherwise yes, it won't run as
non-root, but it should say "inocmd32 may only be used by the root user".

Yes. I've been throu' on this with CA. You can read their reply at:

It was also posted to this list by that time.
I use exim, which dislikes to run as root, but I also find a pretty bad
idea.
to run anything as root.

I haven't tried but you can try
 sweep = "sudo inocmd32 ..."

Read the above link for ideas, and keep us posted.
