Gives permission denied. Fresh install. Testing for another user who reported the problem on reddit.

/etc/authbind/byport:
total 0
drwxr-xr-x 1 root    root  4 Aug  7 18:21 .
drwxr-xr-x 1 root    root 34 Aug  7 18:21 ..
-rwxrw-rw- 1 moozaad root  0 Aug  7 18:21 80

You can see it's owned by moozaad with 766. Running as moozaad gives


> authbind nc -l -p 80 
nc: Permission denied

example with python3

> authbind python3 -m http.server 80

ss shows nothing already on the port.

I've watched lsof and can't even see the helper being called.
