To possible solutions:

To start a shell as the navcron user with su: Run ``su - navcron -c /bin/bash''. You'll be prompted for the navcron user's password if you're not running the command as root. '-c /bin/bash' in case the navcron user does not have a shell. I'm not very into NAV yet :-)

To run the commands or a shell as the navcron user with sudo: ``sudo -u postgres ../compile'' or ``sudo -u postgres /bin/bash''. You will need to have sudo rights in /etc/sudoers (do not edit directly, man sudoers) and will be prompted for your own password unless you run sudo as root.
