[Bro] First time Bro Cluster Spin up

Hi.

I am attempting to get a Bro cluster working and I get the following error for all my workers, (full output of diag below).   "fatal error: /usr/local/bro/bin/bro: problem with interface dag0:42 - pcap_open_live: dag0:42: dag_open /dev/dag0: Permission denied"

Thoughts on what I am missing?


Config:
I have an Endace DAG8.1SX set up to run with 22 streams.
1 Server set up to have 22 instances of BRO workers on it
1 server set up as the manager and prox
Using     libpcap-1.6.2
                dag-5.2.0.
                bro version 2.3.1



TS:


1.       I have run the following command on both the worker and the manager/proxy servers.

sudo setcap cap_net_raw,cap_net_admin=eip /usr/local/bro/bin/bro


2.       I can launch bro manually on the worker if I use sudo

acns-bro at endace:/usr/local/bro/bin$ sudo ./bro -i dag0:42
listening on dag0:42, capture length 8192 bytes

^C1416254260.140036 received termination signal
1416254260.140036 209 packets received on interface dag0:42, 0 dropped


3.       Manipulated the user launching bro (acns-bro) group permissions to be in the adm group
