Re: inetd cant bind to port

 Squid isn't a web server, and isn't designed to be run from
 inetd... as you are aware inetd "listens" to sockets and then
 on a request runs a service and passes the socket on...

 Squid wants to bind the socket... starting up and closing down
 squid for every web request would _really_ be a bad idea even
 if you could...

 Run it as a daemon.
