No, I mean that one user would successfully start _and stop_ the daemon. The other could not do that at any point, getting the "port already in use error." Ironically, the problem account was that of our system administrator. I am sure that he knew how to ascertain that the port was not, in fact, in use.

No, we were just trying to get the daemon to run under the sysadmin's account.
