Hey Ben,
As I suspected it's the pinger that is causing this issue.
In my RPM builds it's disabled by defaults to avoid selinux complications.
I think it's a very special case you have found.
Try to use the:
pinger_enable off
and see if it fixes your issue.
All The Bests,
Eliezer

Hey Ben,
I do not know if it won't listen.
I can try to reproduce locally and see the results.
I assume it might be related to the pinger process or maybe something else but not 100% sure.

Subject: Re: SQUID refuses to listen on any TCP Port
Hi Eliezer,
SQUID started listening only after I run "ip6tables -P INPUT ACCEPT". I
had searched everywhere on the internet regarding this issue and no one
mentioned that IPV6 iptables rules could stop squid from listening on
TCP ports. And Squid just started without any complaint. To my limited
knowledge, it seems no other software behaves like this?
At first I was indeed suspecting that the issue is related to IPV6.
I had tried recompiling SQUID without IPV6 and disabed IPV6 using
sysctl.conf, nothing worked. It never occured to me that my IPV6 INPUT
POLICY could be the culprit.
Again, many thanks for your help
