<note><para>Multi-user mode has one important limitation: only
<systemitem class="username">root</systemitem> can run <command
linkend="sec-nix-pull">nix-pull</command> to register the availability
of pre-built binaries. However, those registrations are shared by all
users, so they still get the benefit from <command>nix-pull</command>s
done by <systemitem class="username">root</systemitem>.</para></note>
<systemitem class="username">root</systemitem> and a set of trusted
users specified in <filename>nix.conf</filename> can specify arbitrary
binary caches. So while unprivileged users may install packages from
arbitrary Nix expressions, they may not get pre-built
binaries.</para></note>
