[Nfd-dev] bind: Permission denied

[Thompson, Jeff]

If I just run “nfd start”, it fails and doesn’t start. Previously, when I run “nfd start” it would prompt for the sudo password for running the daemon. Now, it doesn’t prompt.

Jeff,

Is the background daemon being started as root?

Hi NFD devs,

I updated NFD on Ubuntu. Now when I do “nfd start” it says

[UnixStreamChannel] [unix:///run/nfd.sock] Creating channel]

FATAL: [NFD] bind: Permission denied

I also get similar behavior on my OS X computer. I am able to run NFD when I do “sudo nfd start” which runs NFD in the foreground. But I can’t run it as a background daemon with “nfd start”.

Thanks for any ideas,
