Hi All,

After upgrading my server from Karmic to Lucid a couple of services 
don't bind to their specified ip socket anymore during the boot process.

The services that are affected are ssh, powerdns, iscsitarget, smb.

When checking the log files the services complain that the ip socket 
they want to bind to does not exist.

What these services all have in common is that I've configured 
a specific socket, instead of running the service on all interfaces and 
ip addresses (0.0.0.0 or :::).

Another detail is that I'm using multiple ip addresses on the same 
network interface. And that I'm using a bridge configuration to host 
some kvm guests. I've attached a copy of my /etc/network/interfaces.

When I restart the services after boot they attach nicely to their 
configured socket. But this is a bit problematic on a headless server 
that is running in a remote datacenter. 

I assume some sort of timing issue with upstart where the network 
interface configration is not yet fully completed when other services 
are being started.

Does anybody has an idea how I can further troubleshoot this issue?

Kind Regards,

Leander Janssen
