starting squid getgrnam failed , getpwnam failed , , `nobody` , `nogroup`. Windows xp
I have had these errors when trying to run squid. in win xp. $ squid FATAL: getpwnam failed to find userid for effective user 'nobody' I read this [1] which seems to say to me I can solve this by creating a nobody account. So I saw this [2] about how to do that in cygwin. and I did created the nobody user net user nobody /add and probably added him to users. net localgroup users nobody /add or I created the user in windows and it automatically went into the users group. and seeing that $less /etc/passwd and $less /etc/group seem less up to date, than mkgroup -l -u and mkpasswd -l , I did mkgroup -l >/etc/group mkpasswd -l >/etc/passwd I saw these commands mentioned once. And then when trying to run squid, I got the similar error FATAL: getgrnam failed to find groupid for effective group 'nogroup' That is more-or-less what happened. I am not sure what to do next to get it working. I don`t really know what I am doing!
