Re: Conflicting assignment of privileged ports on boot, once again

2009-07-16 Thread Gernot Salzer
  What is currently the expert way to avoid/handle such port conflicts
  in Debian?
 
 /etc/bindresvport.blacklist

Thanks for the hint, this is what I was looking for.
So the world has moved since 2005, at list a bit.

873 (rsync) is not listed in this file.
- Is this a bug in libc6?
- ... or in rsync? (Are the services supposed to add their ports on
  installation?)
- ... or is it up to the administrator to add the ports manually?
I couldn't find any policy on who is responsible for entering
the port number. It seems to be the last option, which is not completely
satisfactory, since it involves trial-and-error.

That's it. The most common offenders are already in the list; if
you're seeing the problem routinely with a popular service that's not
on the list already, that'd be a wishlist bug against libc6.

Interestingly, none of the tcp ports between 600 and 1024 that are
listed in /etc/services appear in this file. Even more interesting, none
of the ports in the /etc/bindresvport.blacklist are in /etc/services.

Let's ask the glibc folks.

Really?  This is from my sid chroot:

% for n in $(awk '{print $1}' /etc/bindresvport.blacklist | \
  grep -v '#'); do grep $n /etc/services ; done
ipp 631/tcp # Internet Printing Protocol
ipp 631/udp

It's difficult to fix an issue you are not aware of. Nobody has reported
the bug so far.

If someone can get the fix from Novell, sure we can fix it.
