Package: postgrey Version: 1.33-3~bpo60+1 Severity: normal Tags: ipv6 upstream
With a version of libnet-server-perl which is capable of listening on IPv6, postgrey does not work. I believe the default configuration in /etc/default/postgrey includes this line: POSTGREY_OPTS="--inet=10023" With no host specified, postgrey translates this to localhost:10023. This means Net::Server will open an IPv6 socket, if you have localhost resolve to::1 in /etc/hosts. Regardless of /etc/hosts though, postgrey should be able to listen on IPv6. With postgrey listening on IPv6, postfix logs these messages, and then rejects incoming mail due to server configuration problems (code 451): 2012-01-15T21:57:05.274902-08:00 darwin postfix/smtpd[10610]: warning: connect to localhost:10023: Connection refused 2012-01-15T21:57:05.274935-08:00 darwin postfix/smtpd[10610]: warning: problem talking to server localhost:10023: Connection refused However, strangely, telnet to the postgrey port on IPv6 seems to work fine. I've looked at postgrey's code, but I don't see why this happens. -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.3 APT prefers stable APT policy: (990, 'stable'), (500, 'stable-updates') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.0.4-x86_64-linode21 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages postgrey depends on: ii adduser 3.112+nmu2 add and remove users and groups ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.36.1 Debian configuration management sy ii libberkeleydb-perl 0.42-1~squeeze1 use Berkeley DB 4 databases from P ii libnet-dns-perl 0.66-2 Perform DNS queries from a Perl sc ii libnet-server-perl 0.99-3~bpo60+1 extensible, general perl server en ii perl 5.10.1-17squeeze2 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction ii ucf 3.0025+nmu1 Update Configuration File: preserv Versions of packages postgrey recommends: ii libdigest-sha1-perl 2.13-1 NIST SHA-1 message digest algorith ii libnet-rblclient-perl 0.5-2 Queries multiple Realtime Blackhol ii libparse-syslog-perl 1.10-1 Perl module for parsing syslog ent ii postfix 2.8.3-1~bpo60+1 High-performance mail transport ag postgrey suggests no packages. -- debconf information: postgrey/1.32-3_changeport: -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
