Re: [squid-users] how to redirect https 80 requests to a cache listening to https on port 8080

i added:
http_port 80 defaultsite=mycompany.no-ip.info:80

but i still get no reply, but the 8080 on https works fine.
i checked to see if anything else is running on 80 on the squid
machine and nothing is.
but after uploading my new squid.conf and running reconfigure i would
expect to see squid listening on port 80, but it isn't:
$ lsof -i :80
(nothing)

$ lsof -i :8080
COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE NODE NAME
squid 3340 squid 8u IPv4 343718 TCP *:webcache (LISTEN)

i checked my squid logs and couldn't see any requests on port 80 other
than this in cache.log:
commBind: Cannot bind socket FD 8 to *:80: (13) Permission denied

so i ps'ed to see who is running what:
$ ps aux |grep squid
squid 3338 0.0 0.5 5408 2068 ? Ss Nov06 0:00
/usr/local/squid/sbin/squid -D
squid 3340 0.0 6.2 48568 24356 ? S Nov06 1:23 (squid) -D
squid 3341 0.0 0.0 1240 280 ? Ss Nov06 0:00 (unlinkd)
root 21173 0.0 0.5 7512 2216 ? Ss 13:27 0:00 sshd:
squid [priv]
squid 21177 0.0 0.6 7688 2340 ? S 13:27 0:02 sshd:
squid@pts/0
squid 21178 0.0 0.5 3600 2128 pts/0 Ss 13:27 0:00 -bash
squid 21388 0.0 0.2 2344 908 pts/0 R+ 14:33 0:00 ps aux
squid 21389 0.0 0.1 1772 600 pts/0 R+ 14:33 0:00 grep squid

does squid need to run as root? i thought it had to run as the squid user?
i'm baffled....
