--- Begin Message ---Package: midentd Version: 2.3.1-3 Severity: normal I noticed, that /proc/net/ip_conntrack has the following permissions: -r--r----- 1 root root 0 2005-06-29 23:41 /proc/net/ip_conntrack When midentd is run by inetd (default configuration), it is run as user ident, which is in group nogroup. With this permissions midentd cannot read the file /proc/net/ip_conntrack, which makes the program nearly unusable. Workaround: change the inetd.conf setup to run midentd as group root (which is quite ugly): ident stream tcp nowait identd.root /usr/sbin/midentd midentd -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (70, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i586) Kernel: Linux 2.4.28 Locale: LANG=de_DE, LC_CTYPE=de_DE (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages midentd depends on: ii adduser 3.63 Add and remove users and groups ii dpkg 1.10.28 Package maintenance system for Deb ii netbase 4.21 Basic TCP/IP networking system -- no debconf information Tschoeeee Roland -- * [EMAIL PROTECTED] * http://www.spinnaker.de/ *

Closes: #313471 * Instead of disabling pre-existing ident, first enable it (update-inetd won't remove a disabled entry), then remove the old and THEN add the midentd line.
