It turns out that tcsd requires the ownership of tcsd.conf file to be
set to root:_tss. See trousers-0.3.14_3/src/tcsd/tcsd_conf.c for
details. Otherwise, tcsd fails:
# service tcsd start
Starting tcsd.
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/tcsd: WARNING: failed to start tcsd
# tail /var/log/messages
Nov 4 11:24:43 x TCSD[1298]: TrouSerS ERROR: TCSD config file (/usr/local/etc/tcsd.conf) must be user/group root/_tss
Nov 4 11:24:43 x 0mp[2372]: /usr/local/etc/rc.d/tcsd: WARNING: failed to start tcsd
Also, the mode of the configuration file has to be 640.
