Michael,

Run pound with -v to give you output to the console. You can also check
your configuration by using -c. For testing, feed the configuration file
manually, rather than using a start script. So check the file like this:

pound -v -c -f /etc/pound.cfg (if that is where your configuration file is
at).

If it doesn't start, it should explain why.

If your configuration passes, start pound using:

pound -v -f /etc/pound.cfg.

As far as your configuration file, I would simplify it until you get it
started and configured. Remove the LogFacility unless you have checked your
syslog.h file and know for sure you're identifying it correctly. Make sure
the user/group exists. Basically remove everything you don't need to
specify because its a default and then start adding them back and testing
as you do.
