Looking at the service file for squid shows, inter alia: [Service] Type=notify PIDFile=/run/squid.pid Group=proxy RuntimeDirectory=squid RuntimeDirectoryMode=0775 ExecStartPre=/usr/sbin/squid --foreground -z ExecStart=/usr/sbin/squid --foreground -sYC ExecReload=/bin/kill -HUP $MAINPID KillMode=mixed NotifyAccess=all That suggests tha you want to run as user root, group squid. Indeed: root@issola:~# ps aux | grep -i squid root 2217 0.0 0.2 66372 17516 ? Ss Nov26 0:00 /usr/sbin/squid --foreground -sYC proxy 2220 0.0 0.2 71824 23064 ?
