Package: nis Version: 3.17-34 Severity: critical Justification: breaks the whole system
Dear Maintainer, For some reason, even though $portmap is mentioned in /etc/init.d/nis as a start prereq, ypbind is started BEFORE rpcbind. This causes ypbind to NEVER properly start, and the bind_wait obviously cannot ever succeed. > Jan 22 12:51:01 compile1 kernel: [ 22.330297] tg3 0000:02:00.0 eth0: Flow > control is on for TX and on for RX > Jan 22 12:51:01 compile1 kernel: [ 22.330416] IPv6: > ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): eth0: link becomes ready > Jan 22 12:51:01 compile1 nis[461]: Setting NIS domainname to: xxx.xxx.xxx ... > Jan 22 12:51:06 compile1 ypbind[615]: Unable to register (YPBINDPROG, > YPBINDVERS, udp). ... > Jan 22 12:51:11 compile1 systemd[1]: Starting RPC bind portmap service... > Jan 22 12:51:11 compile1 rpcbind[640]: rpcbind: xdr_/run/rpcbind/rpcbind.xdr: > failed > Jan 22 12:51:11 compile1 rpcbind[640]: rpcbind: xdr_/run/rpcbind/portmap.xdr: > failed > Jan 22 12:51:11 compile1 systemd[1]: Started RPC bind portmap service. > Jan 22 12:51:11 compile1 systemd[1]: Reached target RPC Port Mapper. ... > Jan 22 12:51:15 compile1 nis[461]: Starting NIS services: ypbindbinding to YP > server...........................................failed (backgrounded). > Jan 22 12:51:15 compile1 nis[461]: . > Jan 22 12:51:15 compile1 systemd[1]: Started LSB: Start NIS client and server > daemons.. Note that the "RPC Port Mapper" target is only reached AFTER ypbind is started (and fails) This was working fine until somebody migrated /etc/init.d/rpcbind to /lib/systemd/ -- Package-specific info: nm-tool is not installed -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.3.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages nis depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.58 ii hostname 3.16 ii libc6 2.21-6 ii libdbus-1-3 1.10.6-1 ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.106-1 ii libgdbm3 1.8.3-13.1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.46.2-3 ii libslp1 1.2.1-11 ii lsb-base 9.20160110 ii make 4.1-1 ii netbase 5.3 ii rpcbind [portmap] 0.2.3-0.2 nis recommends no packages.
