Package: procps Version: 1:3.2.8-11 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
I have a vpn gateway that periodically sends icmp redirects to the hosts of my network (when renegociating tunnels), I configured hosts not to accepts reidrects by uncommenting the default directive found in sysctl.conf: net.ipv4.conf.all.accept_redirects = 0 after reboot here is the config i get in /proc/sys: cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/*/accept_redirects 0 1 1 1 1 If i try to echo the value in the proc filesystem, It's no better: root@elronde:/home/alxgomzecho 0 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/all/accept_redirects root@elronde:/home/alxgomz# cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/*/accept_redirects 0 1 1 1 1 Where I expected this to put all interfaces to zero. the entry ./default/accept_redirects seems to work as expected. I have seen the same behaviour for other proc entries such as send_redirects and notices the bug #630650 that is maybe related. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 3.0.0-1-686-pae (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=fr_FR.utf8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages procps depends on: ii initscripts 2.88dsf-13.11 ii libc6 2.13-18 ii libncurses5 5.9-1 ii libncursesw5 5.9-1 ii lsb-base 3.2-28 Versions of packages procps recommends: ii psmisc 22.13-1 procps suggests no packages. -- Configuration Files: /etc/sysctl.conf changed: net.ipv4.conf.all.accept_redirects = 0 -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
