You should not do this. Very risky thing to do.
I also set the write bit for other for /dev/stdout. On CentOS 4.1,
/dev/stdout is a symlink for /proc/self/fd/1 which is in turn a symlink for
/dev/pts/0. The permissions on /dev/pts/0 are as follows
crw--w-w- 1 marlowe tty 136, 0 Sep 20 16:51 /dev/pts/0
It is my understand that with these other write permissions in place, the
user squid should be able to write to /dev/stdout. However when I attempt to
start squid, I still receive the same error message. I tried to run my start
script from the CLI and received the same error messages. What else should I
be looking at?
Are you starting Squid as yourself, or as root? I only tried as myself.
Additionally it may be worth upgrading. I have only tried this with
2.5.STABLE11. Running a somewhat recent version is recommended anyway..
