I suppose, you are connecting to rrdcached through a UNIX socket (see the -l command line option). In that case, the user doing rrdupdate needs (filesystem) write permissions for the appropriate socket file. If that is not the case, please provide more information about your setup. What rrdcached command line options do you use? Does rrdcached run as root? Which user is doing the rrdupdate? What is the command line used for that (please note that some environment variables might overwrite some of those options -- see the appropriate manpages for details)? ...
