It is related to the application "effective user" permissions.
The Squid helper program which that code is in requires to be run with
root user privileges solely in order to do that. Whereas the main Squid
binary running your eCAP library is operating under a protected /
unprivileged user account when it processes HTTP traffic.
Why are you trying to do ICMP from an eCAP adaptor?
