won't open pound.cfg

I have setup and fully tested a pound server working as a front end to a
Lotus Domino server. Then I've moved it to a different
(customer/production) site, changed the host name, IP addressing.
When I run
pound -v -f /root/pound.cfg
I get
can't open configuration file "/root/pound.cfg" (Operation not
permitted) - aborted
This worked fine before the move.
running strace gives me an
open("/root/pound.cfg", O_RDONLY) = -1 EPERM (Operation not permitted)
What might have changed here.....????? What should the proper
permissions on pound.cfg be - is this the problem?
Thanks for any insight.

That's usually a very bad place for config files, ONLY root can read
anything here. Without knowing what actually is your config, I guess
you're running (does not mean starting) pound as non root user and then it
won't be able to read it's config.

still get the error.

Maybe try recreating the config file from scratch. There could be an
invalid character or something in the file.
For what it's worth, here is my config setup:
camproxy01:/usr/local/etc # ls -lah
total 20K
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 176 Jul 18 11:40 .
drwxr-xr-x 11 root root 264 Feb 21 12:40 ..
-rw------- 1 root root 4.5K Feb 16 11:44 newcert.pem
-rw------- 1 root root 1.6K Jul 18 11:40 pound.cfg
-rw------- 1 root root 1.5K Mar 15 12:58 pound.cfg.orig
-rw------- 1 root root 1.6K Jul 18 11:40 pound.cfg~
and the pound process runs as user pound and group pound

Don't forget your directories, too. If you ls -ld / /root you'll
probably see that /root is restricted to root only.
If it's in etc, check ls -ld / /etc to make sure the pound user can
access those directories.

Well, I got disgusted, re-installed everything from scratch and
everything is working fine. A bit drastic, but it allowed me to check my
documentation.
thanks for assistance.
