Ubuntu 14.04
Squid 3.5.5

Hi -
I'm having pretty much exactly the same problem as Priya. I didn't see a
resolution so I'm picking up the thread.

I've installed and run squid 3.5.5 previously w/o a problem using:

sudo apt-get install squid

I want to filter by mac address though, so I purged that install and
re-built squid with the *--enable-arp-acl* flag. This is when the problems
begin. I've provided what was requested from Priya below. I'm grateful for
any help.

Thanks,
Deiter

I adjusted the paths above from what was asked of Priya to jibe with my
set-up, but just in case:
