Bug#455221: dnsmasq should start after nfs-kernel-server

[Daniel Butzu]

Now this is strange. On my Etch system (netinstall) :
# cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_local_port_range
2048   4999

So it does include 2049 (+ it causes problems with other services aswell). 
Adding "net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range = 32768 61000" to /etc/sysctl.conf fixes 
this problem. Of course, this has nothing to do with dnsmasq. Thank you and 
sorry for the trouble.


Best wishes,

Daniel

Bug#455221: dnsmasq should start after nfs-kernel-server

[Daniel Butzu]

Package: dnsmasq
Version: 2.35-1
Severity: normal




During the installation of the dnsmasq debian package, init script links are 
created named S15dnsmasq. However, if on the 
same system nfs-kernel-server is installed, dnsmasq is started before 
nfs-kernel-server (since S15dnsmasq comes before 
S20nfs-kernel-server). This leads to the impossibility of starting 
nfs-kernel-server, because dnsmasq will listen to 2049 udp 
and nfs-kernel-server will refuse to start, stating "nfssvc: Address already in 
use". When dnsmasq is started after 
nfs-kernel-server, both work fine. I suggest that dnsmasq should create 
S22dnsmasq symlinks, so that it will start after 
S20nfs-kernel-server and after S21nfs-common.
