Start-stop-daemon question.

[MianoSM]

I recently attempted to remove squid.

I then had second thoughts and re-installed it. After doing so I set all of my configurations, and attempted to start the server and it keeps on telling me:

start-stop-daemon: Unable to set gid to 0 (Operation not permitted)
[fail]

Any ideas on this?

Are you doing it as root? (prefix with sudo)

I did attempt to do it as root as well and nothing happend.

I wound up running it from /usr/sbin/squid -NCd1 instead, and it works from that location instead of from /etc/init.rd/squid

Now to start reading up on the ACL and its modification/configuration! : )

init.rd? I'm not sure I understand.... but if you're up-and-running that's all that matters.

If you meant init.d I guess the startup script must be borked. I would've thought you'd want it fixing, particularly for bringing Squid up at boot?
