Re: About a rc.d script and "--user ${puser}"

The privoxy manpage says:

and the code works that way. So your change to pass
the group explicitely does not change anything.
The problem is that the supplementary group memberships
are not reset on the uid/gid switch.

(I've tried to report that to the privoxy maintainers
but the mail hangs in the queue awaiting moderator
approval.)

best regards
