It's nothing to do with locales. This line:
socket(PF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, IPPROTO_IP) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied) is your problem. My guess is you're using an android derived kernel, and you have CONFIG_ANDROID_PARANOID_NETWORK set. In this case you need to create a group called aid_inet and add yourself (and any other users wanting to use the network) to that group: As root: groupadd -g 3003 aid_inet usermod -G aid_inet your_login_name See http://elinux.org/Android_Security#Paranoid_network-ing y -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
