[squid-users] 3.5.8 Arm7 socket permissions

[Darren Breeze ML]

Hi all

I have built squid 3.5.8 with yocto to run on an arm 7.

This build of the OS seems to have different permissions for processes 
opening sockets. THe DNS routine fails to open a socket with the 
following error

root at test:~# 2015/10/28 22:07:43 testing| Starting Squid Cache version 
3.5.8 for arm-poky-linux-gnueabi...
2015/10/28 22:07:43 kid1| Service Name: squid
2015/10/28 22:07:43 kid1| comm_open: socket failure: (13) Permission denied
2015/10/28 22:07:43 kid1| comm_open: socket failure: (13) Permission denied
FATAL: Could not create a DNS socket

It looks like I would have to either run squid as a user that can do 
this or change this underlying permissions setting in the OS.

I would rather fix the OS rather than run squid as root.

Has anyone experienced this before and found a fix

thanks in advance
