When Squid runs (as in, when i only have /var/spool/squid listed as a
cache_dir, and nothing else), it runs as user squid, group squid:
$ ps -Heo pid,user,euser,group,egroup,command
PID USER EUSER GROUP EGROUP COMMAND
3010 root root root root squid -D
3012 squid squid squid squid (squid) -D
3014 squid squid squid squid (unlinkd)
[non-Squid lines trimmed]
It looks like there is still something running as root, but a root
process would certainly have permission to read and write files...
