Package: nsca Version: 2.9.1-2 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
I am experiencing a bug since I have upgraded to version 2.9.1-2. Immediately after upgrading the package, I started to see such lines in the log: Mar 5 14:14:24 lapin nsca[30583]: Dropping packet with invalid CRC32 - possibly due to client using wrong password or crypto algorithm? Mar 5 14:14:25 lapin nsca[30584]: Dropping packet with invalid CRC32 - possibly due to client using wrong password or crypto algorithm? Also, Nagios soon started complaining about not receiving passive checks. Of course, everything was working fine before the upgrade, and thus it is not a password/encryption method mismatch. After a little more investigation, I found that single-line reports still worked fine (no error in the logs). For instance echo test-test,bla,0,OK | /usr/sbin/send_nsca -H globi.homelinux.com -c /etc/send_nsca.cfg -d "," works fine. However, multi-line reports cause problems above 5 lines. For instance tail -n 5 /dev/shm/host | /usr/sbin/send_nsca -H globi.homelinux.com -c /etc/send_nsca.cfg still works, whereas tail -n 6 /dev/shm/host | /usr/sbin/send_nsca -H globi.homelinux.com -c /etc/send_nsca.cfg fails (i.e. generates a line similar to the above in the log file). I have tested with several encryption methods (0 to 3), and all exhibit the same behavior. Thus, I believe that it is a bug in this version of the package. Regards, Olivier PS: config files not included because of password content. However, I edited only the "password" and "decryption_method" values. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (700, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i586) Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-1-486 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_US.UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages nsca depends on: ii confget 1.03-1 ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.41 ii libc6 2.13-26 ii libmcrypt4 2.5.8-3.1 ii nsca-client 2.9.1-2 nsca recommends no packages.
