Package: shorewall Version: 3.2.4-1 Severity: important Tags: patch
In /usr/share/shorewall/functions is the following line: if [ -z "$EXPORT" -a "$(whoami)" = root ]; then Please change this to read something like if [ -z "$EXPORT" -a "$(id -u)" = 0 ]; then There is no linux requirement that the "root" user be named root. Occasionally i run into shell scripts such as this that have it wrong but fortunately this is rare. -Ted Merrill -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (200, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.15.1-kanotix-mp-2 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages shorewall depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.7 Debian configuration management sy ii iproute 20061002-2 Professional tools to control the ii iptables 1.3.5.0debian1-1 Linux kernel 2.4+ iptables adminis Versions of packages shorewall recommends: ii wget 1.10.2-2 retrieves files from the web -- debconf information: shorewall/upgrade_20_22: shorewall/upgrade_14_20: shorewall/upgrade_to_14: shorewall/warnrfc1918: shorewall/warn_about_klogd_floods: shorewall/dont_restart: * shorewall/major_release: true -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
