Unable to create raw socket: permission denied

If you receive "unable to create raw socket" errors, take the following action:

1. cd into the /bin sub-directory of your OpenLink server components installation. For example:

$ cd /usr/openlink/bin

2. su to root.

3. Run the following command:

$ ./security -s

This should alleviate the problem. A non-privileged user may continue to administer the Broker. However, the actual Broker process will run with root permissions. This will allow it to create sockets.
