Package: openssh-server Version: 1:4.6p1-1 Severity: important Tags: patch User: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Usertags: incorrect-dependency
I discovered this problem in a test installation of Debian Edu. The ssh boot script can end up starting before syslog when dependency based boot sequencing is enabled. It should depend on $syslog. When looking at the dependency header, I found several issues I recommend fixing. There were no shutdown dependencies, which will lead to the wrong shutdown order. There is no need to depend on both $local_fs and $remote_fs, as the latter implies the former. Also, $remote_fs implies $network, so there is no need to depend on that directly. Here is a proposed patch to solve both issues. diff -ru openssh-4.7p1.orig/debian/openssh-server.init openssh-4.7p1/debian/openssh-server.init --- openssh-4.7p1.orig/debian/openssh-server.init 2008-05-13 09:13:00.000000000 +0200 +++ openssh-4.7p1/debian/openssh-server.init 2008-05-13 09:14:04.000000000 +0200 @@ -2,8 +2,8 @@ ### BEGIN INIT INFO # Provides: sshd -# Required-Start: $network $local_fs $remote_fs -# Required-Stop: +# Required-Start: $remote_fs $syslog +# Required-Stop: $remote_fs $syslog # Default-Start: 2 3 4 5 # Default-Stop: 0 1 6 # Short-Description: OpenBSD Secure Shell server Happy hacking, -- Petter Reinholdtsen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
