i am trying to chroot squid but
 

i have this error
[root@ns squid]# chroot /mnt/2/squid/ squid -z
FATAL: getpwnam failed to find userid for effective user 'nobody'
Squid Cache (Version 2.4.STABLE4): Terminated abnormally.
CPU Usage: 0.020 seconds = 0.020 user + 0.000 sys

what can i do?

You are starting squid as root so it is trying to find an unpriveleged user to run as. Do you have a user 'nobody' on your machine?

yes i have, i can start squid without chroot. but with chroot it could not find userid, even a root.

plz help
