[squid-users] libnss

I have the famous

        FATAL: getpwnam failed to find userid for effective user 'squidc'

problem. The target system has a statically linked BusyBox and mot much
else. It does NOT have full gcc libraries. It is a very minimal system.

To fix the problem, I added the following files to the system:

        /etc/nsswitch.conf # containing the line: passwd: files
        /lib/libnss_files.2.3.2.so
        /lib/libnss_files.so.2 # symbolic link to above

squid was built with a matching compiler/glibc such that the libnss_files it
is looking for should be .so.2. It still doesn't work.

Any idea how one goes about debugging this sort of thing?
