>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Manager
>    Affects Versions: 3.1.3

> Sometimes the ownership of mgmtapisocket is nobody and sometimes it is root.  This is only seen if you don't link with libcap.
> The thread that creates the unix-socket (mgmtapisocket) is created before ATS binds its ports.  There is a race between seteuid() called from restoreRootPriv() before we bind() the sockets and the creation of the unix-socket in the "web agent thread".
> If ATS binds the ports before the thread is created that creates mgmtapisocket then the proper ownership of mgmtapisocket happens (owned by nobody).
