Bug#340560: reportbug: leaves /tmp file behind

2005-11-23 Thread Marc Haber
Package: reportbug
Version: 3.17
Severity: normal

Hi,

some time ago, reportbug stopped cleaning up after itself and now
leaves files like /tmp/reportbug-package-mmdd-p-r
behind, with mmdd being the current date, p probably the pid,
and r some random suffix. The file contains the bug report as it
was successfully sent.

Bug#381806: fcron works without needing a fcrontab entry

 Moreinfo: fcron nowadays executes /etc/cron.{daily,weekly,monthly}
 however it still does not support /etc/cron.d/. Therefore it cannot
 provide cron, but while exim only uses the former it would probably
 work with fcron.

Just for the record, we'll make this change post-etch. I surely hope
that fcron catches up wrt/ /etc/cron.d before I start using cron.d
without remembering.

 upgrading nagios2 with a configuration file error means the

I'd say that's a feature. What behavior do you suggest?

 but more importantly, upgrading nagios2 when it isn't running
 results in a nonzero-failing init script, causing the upgrade
 to fail.

Hm. I cannot reproduce this.

installed nagios2 2.5-1
stopped nagios daemon
verified that no nagios daemon was running
dpkg --install nagios2 2.6-1 and dependencies
upgrade finished without error, nagios 2.6 daemon running

I would be willing to accept a patch implementing both schemes (report

 Even as a configurable option defaulting to off? I wasn't suggesting
 that this should be the default behaviour; clearly some sites will be
 relying on the existing remote deliverability of those addresses.

Again, I currently plan to re-think this issue post-etch. Most
probably there will be a whitelist mechanism. My current idea is
having a new file /etc/low-uid-aliases which would be honored for all
low-uid accounts (uid smaller than a configurable x, defaulting to
500). If an uid is smaller than x, and the account is not listed in
/etc/low-uid-aliases, incoming mail would be 550'ed. Accounts with uid
 x would be handled normally, no change at all. If
/etc/low-uid-aliases does not exist, behavior is unchanged to what we
have today.

What do you think about that?

I have filed this as a bug in logrotate, #400198. I have additionally
opened exim wishlist item #418
(http://www.exim.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=418), where I ask for an
exim option to write to a log file to be created. This option could be
abused to force exim to generate the log file in a postrotate script.

Other than this and listing a manual change to logrotate.d/exim4-base
as a possible workaround, I do not plan to do anything more about this.

Bug#245423: /sbin is always changed directly after doing a aide --update

 All the files in /sbin are declared as added, which seems a bit odd,
 sometimes a further --update cycle will fix it, sometime the DB needs to be
 initialised again.

During further debugging, this was tracked down to gzip_dbout=yes
being set in the Debian configuration.

After going through another update round, changing both upstream aide
and the aide cron job, can you guys please re-try with aide 0.13 from
Debian testing (it backports nicely if you're running stable) and
gzip_dbout enabled?

I would really like to know if we finally catched this issue.

 Aide should return different error statuses depending on whether
 differences were found.  Since aide always generates output now, and
 the exit status is meaningless, in the present situation I have to go
 parse the output to determine whether any checksums changed or not.

This has now changed upstream with 0.13:
DIAGNOSTICS
   Normally,  the  exit status is 0 if no errors occurred. Except when the
   --check command was requested, in which case the exit status is defined
   as:

   1 * (new files detected?) +

   2 * (removed files detected?) +

   4 * (changed files detected?)

   Additionally,  the  following  exit codes are defined for generic error
   conditions:

   14 Error writing error

   15 Invalid argument error

   16 Unimplemented function error

   17 Invalid configureline error

   18 IO error

I am thus removing the upstream and forwarded markers.

I am not closing the bug, since aide.wrapper does not yet hand the
exit code down to the calling code (making the exit code only useable
if you call aide directly with your own configuration), and the cron
job still parses the output instead of relying on the exit code.

Expect both of these things to change RSN, and expect this bug to be
(finally) closed soon.

Thanks for your patience.

 I also have a Sony-Ericsson P990i (Germany, non-branded by a phone

The P990i seems to have issues when connecting to a GnuTLS server. We
have verified this by having the phone connect to gnutls-serv. The
phone and gnutls-serv negotiate TLS 1.0 with AES128 and SHA-1, and
this seems to be the culprit. The phone does not support TLS 1.1. The
connection works fine when gnutls-serv is configured to use SSL3.0
instead of TLS 1.0, and it works as well when TLS1.0 is allowed but
SHA-1 is forbidden. Unfortunately, the cipher falls back to ARCFOUR
when SHA-1 is forbidden.

In exim, the MAC can only be influenced by modifying the actual source
code, and I have verified that an exim compiled with SHA-1 disabled in
the sources can talk to Hanno's phone.

The GnuTLS people are in on this, and I'll report back as soon as we
have new findings.

Bug#403072: exim4-daemon-light fails to use equifax SSL cert/key obtained from 11 hosting

 Package: exim4-daemon-light

 When trying to use the equifax key/cert, STARTTLS triggers the following
 log:
 
 2006-12-14 13:03:29 TLS error on connection from pd9e39091.dip.t-dialin.net
   (palmen.homeip.net) [217.227.144.145] (cert/key setup:
   cert=/etc/exim4/exim.crt key=/etc/exim4/exim.key): Base64 decoding 
 error.
 
 It works fine when compiling the package with OpenSSL instead of GnuTLS.

What happens when you use a current version of GnuTLS? Using exim 4.50
suggests that you're working on sarge, which has a rather old version
of gnutls. Things have evolved since then and I am not willing to
debug the old stuff (since this bug is not going to be fixed in sarge
anyway).

Do I see correctly that Equifax is a CA that has issued you a
certificate? If so, how did you create the private key belonging to
the certificate request / certificate?

 So please provide optional contrib daemon packages built with OpenSSL,
 because this seems to be more compatible than GnuTLS.

That won't happen for license reasons. While it might currently be
possible to link exim with OpenSSL without violating license, I am too
lazy to evaluate licenses whenever I change compile options.

Greetings
Marc

Ok. Can you please install gnutls-bin and try starting gnutls-serv
with the appropriate --x509keyfile and --x509certfile options. If that
gives the same error message, we have a gnutls-issue and this bug
needs to be reassigned appropriately.

   Unfortunately, I had to take the key from the hoster, so I don't know
 I don't think that's a good option. For obvious reasons, I can't give
 out the problematic key/cert files,

Yes, that makes debugging a little hard.

  but maybe 11 could provie the necessary informations, I'll try to

Don't hold your breath.

Bug#403211: dpkg: please allow No override present. error message to be turned off

2006-12-15 Thread Marc Haber
Package: dpkg
Version: 1.13.24
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

some postrm scripts use dpkg-statoverride --force --remove to get rid
of overrides during purge. Recent versions of dpkg-statoverride give
an error message No override present. in this case, which can not be
turned of via --quiet. They therefore redirect dpkg-statoverride's
stderr to /dev/null which switches off other errors as well.

Please consider making it possible to switch off this error message
without dumping all errors into the void.
Greetings

Ouch. Upstream stopped shipping resource.cfg, so it is not any more in
the packages, but I decided to keep it in the config. That means, that
upgrading works, and installing anew after purging works as well. Only
a fresh install does not work.

Fixed in the packages by shipping a resource.cfg file from the Debian
branch.

Local workaround: touch /etc/nagios2/resource.cfg.

On Sat, Sep 09, 2006 at 10:59:05AM +1000, Kel Modderman wrote:
 That is your conf file, but how is wpa_supplicant initiated? In other bug 
 reports you mention wpa_action, do you use wpa-roam? You use 'id_str' so I 
 assume you do, but please give more information about your setup.

Yes, I have
auto eth1
iface eth1 inet manual
wpa-driver wext
wpa-roam /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf.local

and one stanza per network:
iface wlan-l21 inet dhcp
wpa-driver wext
wpa-ssid snip
wpa-key-mgmt WPA-PSK
wpa-psk snip

I am not sure whether the network stanzas are still used.

 You show network blocks, does you conf also contain ap_scan or other 
 non-network wpa_supplicant options?

ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
ctrl_interface_group=0

dot11RSNAConfigSATimeout=10

eapol_version=1
ap_scan=2
fast_reauth=1

Besides that, I only have network stanzas in my
wpa_supplicant.conf.local.

 I can think of two things that may be the problem here, but will
 require some more info about your setup, and will try to set up a test
 case myself.
 
 Quite possibly, having 'id_str' in the connect-any block is causing issues. 
 Try removing id_str=wlan-open, and allow wpa-roam to fallback to 
 the default logical mapping.

So I need to remove the id_str statement, and an iface default inet
dhcp stanza in /e/n/i?

 Take some info from 'wpa_cli -i eth1 status' or 'iwconfig eth1' during and 
 after attempted association. 

I will do so when I encounter the hotspot for the next time. It's a
railroad station I am usually only passing through, so I'll either
need to disembark from the train next time I am there or am limited to
the like ten-minute stop of the train en route to my girlfriend's site.

 iirc, Jouni mentioned this on a recent thread on hostapd mailing list. If I

 smtp-over-tls on port 465 is a legacy protocol. Upstream is not

 I don't think that makes sense, so I'll close this bug. If you

 OK, but what are the current Internet standards for secure smtp connections?

ESMTP STARTTLS on Port 25.

 My ISP's current secure email connection information is at:
 
 http://www.internode.on.net/support/email/secure/index.php

They seem to provide you sub-standard service. Try educating them.

I suspect that there is a number of mail clients that cannot do
smtp-over-tls on tcp/465 in the first place.

 (FYI, I'm one of the people that doesn't believe the telnet is 
 insecure, ssh is safe mantra that others keep stating, having run 
 secure-only telnet servers and read of man-in-the-middle attacks on ssh).

When people say telnet is insecure, they are usually referring to
unencrypted telnet. Personally, I have never run telnet over TSL, but
I suspect that ssh is more widely used because of its vastly superior
feature set.
mitm attacks are usually caused by people clicking away the new host
key warning, but it's the same with classical TLS as well.

Can you use exim -bh 63.123.252.6 to find out why the rejection happens?

 I've customized my rules significantly, not only enabling the check of

 to check exactly what's going on.  

exim -bh ip-address or exim -d -bh ip-address will be a big
helper. It expects you to simulate an SMTP session.

 I can do that after I make sure I understand how it's working.  As I
 said, I suspect it's just some local stuff that is breaking the
 expected behavior.

I suspect that as well.

Whitelist honoring is configured inside each access list stanza.
Whenever you see something like !acl = acl_whitelist_local_deny in
an ACL stanza, the whitelist is honored for _this_ acl stanza only.
So, if it's one of your local rules that denies a whitelisted host,
you are probably not mentioning the white list in your local acl stanza.

Maybe it can help to take a look at the default configuration to find
out whether you have locally broken things or if our logic is at
fault. You can find the default configuration on Debian svn. We only
hold the split config in svn, though - refer to
http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/pkg-exim4/exim/trunk/debian/debconf/conf.d/?rev=0sc=0.
The non-split config is built from the split config at package build
time.

Hope this helps.

Marc

 I know this has been reported before to death [since gnutls is being used],
 but I will just add another twist, since I'm tired of rebuilding exim with
 OpenSSL manually.
 
 GnuTLS drains the entropy pool much more quickly than OpenSSL. On server
 systems without hardware generators, /dev/random drains very quickly, meaning
 that exim will often block. But exim should NOT block, or even wait, in
 STARTTLS.

As far as I know, exim blocks if no dh-parameters are available. The
package regenerates the dh-parameters from outside exim if the
gnutls-bin package is installed. exim4-base suggests gnutls-bin for
this reason.

 This is a bug in exim. exim should NOT block in STARTTLS. keys must be
 generated in background or by other means,

This is already been done.

  and the unavailability of data at STARTTLS should generate and
  immediate temporary failure to avoid other DOS conditions.

Forwarded upstream.

Bug#343085: exim4: Exim SMTP_AUTH hangs since today...

On Fri, Sep 15, 2006 at 09:55:58AM +0200, Micha Lenk wrote:
 I now struggled about the same problem here: Exim hangs
 after STARTTLS in outgoing connections. I observed this behaviour with
 exim4-heavy-daemon 4.50-8sarge2 and 4.62-0bpo1 equally.
 
 What strikes me: Usually my mailserver is simply working fine. But every
 morning at more or less 6:25 AM (apparently after logrotation) it tends
 to hang. May be this gives a hint how to trigger this bug.

In the daily cron job, the diffie-hellman parameter file is deleted
and exim tries to regenerate it on the next TLS connection
initialization.

Starting with exim4 4.52-2, if the gnutls-bin package is installed,
the dh-parameters are generated asynchronously and only replaced after
new ones have been successfully generated. This will still starve your
entropy (since GnuTLS is very uneconomically using the entropy), but
exim will continue using the old dh parameters until the new ones have
been generated.

Bug#387607: module-assistant: still _severely_ underdocumented

2006-09-15 Thread Marc Haber
Package: module-assistant
Severity: normal

[severity: normal, since the package is unuseable with the docs that
come with it. In my opinion, this bug should be important.]

The interaction of module-assistant with the actual module source is
completely underdocumented. I have here an (inofficial) module package
which builds fine if invoked directly with fakeroot debian/rules
binary-modules, but does not build with module-assistant build
modulename.

To debug this, I desperately need module-assistant to be a lot more
verbose in what is does (like invoking debian/rules some-target), or
I need documentation about which parts of the kernel sources, m-a and
the module source interfere with each other.

 I noticed that gnutls-bin was suggested after the maintainer reply.  
 Since I already have openssl installed, I simply ignored the  
 suggestion. I'm happy the parameters can be generated outside of  
 exim, as this downgrades the severity (somewhat) of the problem.

It is now more clearly documented.

 Upstream quickly tagged as this as can't be done: I'd say this  
 simply wrong. Everything can be done, provided enough time is given.

Do you really think that it should be exim's job to re-implement a
good part of a TLS library? Please take this up with upstream or the
tech ctte.

 About Debian. Since the race _can_ be avoided (my bad I didn't  
 notice), I'd say that it's a priority to inform users enough. A  
 simple Suggest isn't enough, as proven by the reports already filed.

What should we do?

 Maybe examples/exim-gencert in exim4-base should call the cron job in  
 order to generate the keys immediately.

I'd rather invoke a key generation process in the background from the
init script if dh parameters are not present.

  README.Debian, instead of suggesting to check /dev/random, should
  inform that generation of keys in STARTTLS is subject to dossability,
  and thus, when setting up TLS and generating the certificates, the
  relative keys should be generated immediately too (this should be
  enough since README.Debian is referenced in
  main/03_exim4-config_tlsoptions), mentioning that gnutls-bin is
  _required_ to perform the task.

Please send a patch. Please notice that i reserve the right to change
your words while applying the patch.

 Also note that openssl can be used to generate the keys (in fact, I'm  
 using openssl now), which is a problem less.

Please send a patch.

 Maybe the Suggest: can also be raised to a Recommend too.

I think that Suggests: is appopriate, as of Policy 7.2. If you
disagree, please take this to the tech ctte.

 This is not what I meant. I clearly don't want to touch and library  
 code.

exim upstream has just said that it is impossible to avoid blocking
from within exim as the gnutls calls themselves block.

  My point is that this behavior
  in Exim is broken, and tagging it as won'tfix is not admitting it
  is.

Please discuss this with upstream.

 I'd rather invoke a key generation process in the background from the
 init script if dh parameters are not present.
 
 If you can you check if exim has TLS enabled, looks fine.

Yes, we can check that. I have build that intelligence into the script
and have also refactored the code in a way that it allows
exim4_refresh_gnutls-params to be called any time.

 Please send a patch. Please notice that i reserve the right to change
 your words while applying the patch.
 
 I'm not native english speaker, so I did my best.

Thanks. I will commit some changes to the docs, but am not going to
make it sound like using the gnutls-bin/openssl based approach is
mandatory.

 This could also be a flaw in the access point firmware (quite likely in those 
 agere based ap's). I am not so sure you could blame this completely on 
 wpa_supplicant.

I am not sure as well.

 Perhaps it would be good to send this same report to hostap mailing lists

Please go ahead and forward. I do not have much time to follow just

Package: dovecot
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

building the package seems to replace config.guess and config.sub,
making them end up in the package .diff. This is unnecessary.

The package build should move away the old config.guess and
config.sub, replace them with the files from the system, and move the
old files back after building.

Bug#397407: dovecot: second build fails, does not seem to correctly clean up

2006-11-06 Thread Marc Haber
Package: dovecot
Version: 1.0.rc12-1
Severity: important

Hi,

after the first successful build with debuild, there are still object
files around in dovecot-sieve/src. This prevents a second build from
completing (unrepresentable changes to source).

Greetings
Marc

 Sounds reasonable.

I am tagging the bug appropriately.

For the record of the BTS: We tried debugging this quite verbosely and
I ended up sshing to Bruce's host to find out what was going on.
Unfortunately, we were not able to reproduce the real issue but only
the symptom, by removing the pidfile manually.

However, removing the pidfile manually may reproduce the symptom, but
that symptom in that case has a clear cause, which does not aid in
debugging the real issue.

If somebody else sees the behavior Bruce has seen as well, please
report here.

If no reports come in, I'll close this bug by the end of November 2006.

Greetings
Marc

Bug#397409: dovecot: needs build-conflict with automake1.4

2006-11-07 Thread Marc Haber
Package: dovecot
Severity: important

If automake1.4 is installed while building (on sarge), build fails. I
would thus recommend a build-conflict with automake1.4.

When I try building on sid with automake1.4 installed, build fails
later than it does on sarge.

The docs say that find -ls behaves as ls -dils. This is not true:

Find should print the device numbers for device nodes.

 Since exim4 is configured for local mail only by default, reportbug

*sigh*

A wonder it took so long time for this bug to be filed for the first
time.

See #392609.

The exim4 maintainers were strongly urged by the installer guys to
have exim refrain from asking configuratino questions during install
and have complied reluctantly. That meant choosing a default, and - of
course - regardless of what you choose as the default the choice is
considered wrong by everybody.

To make it short: Please take this to debian-devel or to the tech ctte
to have them tell me what to choose as default. I don't care. And I am
not going to change this default just to have somebody else complain a
day later.

 Since this is the way that reportbug works currently, I really don't
 see the problem. [Perhaps the only bug here is that it even asks
 whether to use the local smtp server in the novice case.]
 
 bugs.debian.org isn't always willing to accept mail.  Besides the
 times like last night when a denial of service attack[0] made it so no
 mail was accepted for half an hour, spohr also uses greylisting.  I
 don't think reportbug does mail queueing.

Best idea would be reporting bugs via an http[s]-based API.

2006-11-10 Thread Marc Haber

In my opinion, the developers' reference should suggest that network
services should bind to 127.0.0.1 only by default and not be reachable
from external hosts without explicit configuration by the local user
(which might be debconf-driven).

If you signal to me that this change would be acceptable for the

2006-11-12 Thread Marc Haber
Package: kopete

I have been using kopete to access ICQ for quite a while. For a period

Since I have migrated back to kopete, at every program start I get a
dialog box titled Add contacts to server list, containing a list of
UINs and the question The following contacts are not on your contact
list. Would you like to add them? and an Add and a Do not add
button.

Whatever I do, the dialog comes back every time, and it always
contains the same UINs. It doesn't care whether I marked an UIN and
clicked on do not add the last time, it always shows the same UIN
list over and over.

Great. I just wanted to ask because it would be bad to upload a new

 Your diagnosis seems to be correct. I'm going to fix this, but not
 before the version currently in sid has migrated to etch.

The following patch seems to fix this. Can you please verify?

if a build completes, but generates a broken package, it would be nice

Bug#394138: ITP: vmware-package -- utility for building Vmware related Debian packages

2006-10-20 Thread Marc Haber
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Marc Haber [EMAIL PROTECTED]

* Package name: vmware-package
  Version : 0.0
  Upstream Author : Marc Haber [EMAIL PROTECTED]
* URL : none yet
* License : GPL
  Programming Lang: shell
  Description : utility for building Vmware related Debian packages

This package provides the capability to create Debian packages for
various VMware products and related software by obtaining VMware
tarballs and then just running make-vmpkg.

It can currently build Debian packages for the following VMware and
VMware related products:

  * VMware kernel modules for Linux, using the vmware-any-any tarball

It is planned to extend make-vmkg to build Debian packages for the
following VMware products:

  * VMware Player 1.0.2

Please note that you need to download the corresponding tarballs
yourself, and that the resulting .deb files are non-free and
non-distributeable.

The package is meant to aid a local admin to roll out VMware products
to their local systems by means of the packaging system.

Greetings
Marc

   Is it not possible to do a wget to fetch these images as

I'd like people to explicitly know that they're building something
non-free and non-distributeable. At least the vmware-player itself
requires an EULA before download is allowed. vmware-any-any is freely
available for download, yes.

   It just seems that if you're expecting users to download a
  tarball anyway that automating things further is a little strange.

My goal is to have the files properly registered with the packaging
system. Automating things is a side-effect of that.

 AFAICR, this question was not asked during my test install. 

In current sid, exim does not ask any questions at high priority, so
during d-i installation, there is no question asked by exim and exim
defaults to a local mail only setup. If you dpkg-reconfigure
exim4-config at a later time, all questions are asked.

This behavior was strongly requested by the Debian installer people
and I do not intend to change this unless the tech ctte overrides me
(and the installer team).

I surely hope that the version that introduces this change makes it to
etch in time.

 So, it really seems that that question is not asked during standard install.

Feature. See /usr/share/doc/exim4-config/NEWS.Debian.gz for 4.62-4.

  even if exim only listens on 127.0.0.1 it will except mail by SMTP,
 (I suppose  s/except/accept/ )
  (SMTP from the local machine), so the question is formally correct.
 
 The question IP-addresses to listen on for incoming SMTP  connections:
 is formally correct, but is not asked during install, and
 its default is not what people do expect from a SMTP server
 that is configured to
  mail sent by smarthost; received via SMTP or fetchmail

I disagree here.

 IMHO, when the person installing Debian chooses 
  mail sent by smarthost; received via SMTP or fetchmail
 s/he most probably is sending email anywhere on the Internet,
 and is expecting replies from anywhere on the Internet.

I disagree here.

 But  IP-addresses to listen on for incoming SMTP  connections: 
 will be silently set to 127.0.0.1 . 
 
 This is not what people do expect.

I think it is not expected by people that their exim accepts
connections from anywhere by default.

 My suggestion is: if the user chooses to configure Exim4
 to only do local delivery, then set the default of
  IP-addresses to listen on for incoming SMTP  connections:
 to 127.0.0.1 ; in all other cases, set it to accept 
 all connections.

Thanks for this suggestion. I am not going to accept it.

 Quoting Jens Seidel ([EMAIL PROTECTED]):

  Hi,
  
  during proofread of the German translation update I recognised a few
  suspected minor errors in the debconf template:
 
 Really late. It is like two full weeks that I'm nagging translators
 to update their translations and suggested changes come at the very
 end of this. So, I'll only make the changes that do not require
 translation updates.
 
  
  /usr/share/doc/exim4-base/README.Debian
  needs to be
  /usr/share/doc/exim4-base/README.Debian.gz
  (already fixed?)

Actually we use /usr/share/doc/exim4-base/README.Debian as a shorthand
for any version of README.Debian as we also ship a HTML version that
has working internal links.

  For example, if a mail address on the local host is [EMAIL PROTECTED], 
  then :
  example is according to http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2606.txt a reserved
  domain. Maybe you should add a comment for translators that it might be
  a good idea not to translate it.
  
  Isn't mails the ordinary plural of mail? I miss this s multiple times,
  e.g. in
  The option to hide the local mail name in outgoing mailS was enabled. It 
  is 
 
 Here, this could be considered a generic plural to mean the
 outgoing mail (flow) or so.

We will probably change the templates post-etch to consequently say
e-mail messages or something similiar.

  The following sentence is hard to understand. Just set one or two commas and
  you will get completely different meanings (I don't know how to improve it):
   
  If this system does only receive e-mail directly from local services
  like  fetchmail or your e-mail program (MUA) talking to localhost
  (and not from  other hosts), it is adviseable to prohibit external
  connections to the local  Exim. This can be accomplished by entering
  127.0.0.1 here. This will disable  listening on public network
  interfaces.
  
  So I thought for example first, that s/from/to/ is missing in the second 
  line.
 
 No. The sentence is awkward but correct. It means if the system does
 only receive from foo or bar (and not from other hosts).

What would be a suitable wording for post-etch?

  In normal mode of operation Exim does DNS lookups at startup, and when 
  receiving or delivering messages. This is for logging purposes and allows 
  keeping down the number of hard-coded values in the configuration.
  
  values refers to IP values in /etc/hosts, right? If so, please mention
  this.
 
 I guess not necessarily. I would say lower the number of hardcoded
 anything. So, no change, IMHO.

Yes, right.

 Will it be recreated automatically then?  If so, then that sounds good.

As with a fresh install, next STARTTLS command will recreate the file.
This might be subject to entropy starvation, but that's not a new

 If you only listen on localhost:smtp, receiving email is going to be a

 This is perfectly reasonable for receiving via fetchmail.
 
 True, but the or doesn't make that clear. Something like 'received via 
 SMTP combined with fetchmail' would be more clear.
 In the original sentence, it sounds like SMTP can be used on it's own.

It can. Just configure exim to listen on a publicly reachable interface.

If you are qualified for running a publicly reachable SMTP server on
the Internet, you should be able to figure that out by yourself.

 Don't do this. If I see a path somewhere I expect it's a valid one. It
 could also make trouble with automatic future path checks, automatic link

 You could rephrase it as see the Debian specific README file in

 Hmmm, OK. Based on a previous remark, I however changed the two references
 to this file into README.Debian.gz (one was README.Debian, another was
 README.Debian.html). I actually assumed that README.Debian.html was a
 mistkae, which it is obviously not.
 
 This can be changed back, if you prefer. Translations *can* be

 After upgrading my backup MX server, running Exim, mail stopped flowing
 to the primary MX. The log file showed every mail being rejected with
 `550 relay not permitted'. I traced this to the following directive in
 /etc/exim4/conf.d/acl/30_exim4-config_check_rcpt:
 
   require
 message = relay not permitted
 domains = +local_domains : +relay_to_domains
 
 The problem is, this line is placed _above_ the call to
 CHECK_RCPT_LOCAL_ACL_FILE. In my setup, the file pointed by this option
 contains the following configuration:
 
   accept
 condition = ${if match{${lookup dnsdb{mx=$domain}}}{ 
 my.primary.mx.host(\\n|\$)}{yes}{no}}
 log_message = Permitted backup MX for $domain.
 
 Which allows relaying to my domains without them being entered by hand
 in the relay_to_domains option. Trouble is, due to the aforementioned
 directive, this one is never evaluated. Could you please move the
 no-relay directive below the call to CHECK_RCPT_LOCAL_ACL_FILE?

I'm sorry, but that would mean deviating too far from upstream's
configuration. The check for local domains and relay_to_domains is
done early on purpose since that check is relatively cheap.

The following methods can be used to work around this:

- edit the ACL file (it's a dpkg-conffile and meant to be edited)
- point the ACL processor to a different, local ACL by means of the
  MAIN_ACL_CHECK_RCPT macro. This different ACL might call
  acl_check_rcpt as a sub-acl.

I am tagging this bug wontfix. If you find the suggested workaround
unacceptable, please say so.

  We will probably change the templates post-etch to consequently say

 Yes, that could be an interesting change.

Bug#394138: ITP: vmware-package -- utility for building Vmware related Debian packages

2006-10-24 Thread Marc Haber

 You might be interested in checking out some of the work I did on

Would you be willing to co-maintain vmware-package? You seem to have
invested a lot of work.

 I tried to integrate as much with Debian as possible. Easy stuff
 included desktop entries, doc-base registration, and using existing
 packages where they already exist in Debian (e.g., point the user at
 dhcp3-server instead of shipping VMware's modified version).

My package does not do a lot of these. Patches would be appreciated.

 Harder stuff included network setup, and replacing the init script with
 if-{pre-post}-{up,down}.d scripts, which allows the user to configure
 their virtual networks by editing /etc/networking/interfaces.


That looks quite neat.

I have preliminary packages on http://ivanova.notwork.de/~mh/debian. I
am going to test them on a clean system and against Debian kernel
sources later this week. There seems to be an issue of the dhcp daemon
answering requests on non-vmnet interfaces.

Bug#396003: exim4-base: rotation of paniclog could be better

 The rotation of /var/log/exim4/paniclog is currently set to do so when

 reports an paniclog with non-zero size. I would think it would be better
 for the paniclog to be rotated daily or the cron job to use the mtime
 and the size of the paniclog before sending the email.

Please read README.Debian.html chapter 2.5.1. If after reading there
are still things to discuss, please mention this here so that we can
improve the docs or even change the default.

Tagging the bug wontfix for the mean time.

Bug#396173: nagios2-common: removed logrotate file still left around

2006-10-30 Thread Marc Haber
Package: nagios2-common
Version: 2.5-2
Severity: important

The logrotate file that was removed in 2.5-2 is not removed on
existing systems. This seems to be a dpkg flaw (or a feature).

We need to take local care about removing the file. I do not have a
clue about how to do this in a policy conformant way.

Marc

Possibly ugly code to do this:

rm_conffile() {
CONFFILE=$1

md5sum=$(md5sum \$CONFFILE\ | sed -e \s/ .*//\)

echo Saving as $CONFFILE.dpkg-bak ...
mv -f $CONFFILE $CONFFILE.bak
else
echo Removing obsolete conffile $CONFFILE ...
rm -f $CONFFILE

preinst code:

Bug#392831: exim4-config: colons or semi colons as separators (debconf templates issue)

2006-11-01 Thread Marc Haber
On Tue, Oct 31, 2006 at 11:48:13PM +0100, Binzberger Viktor wrote:
 Your 'fix' just caused us a few hours of clueless debugging.

Sorry about that.

  Using lsearch;/etc/mail/domains in dc_other_domains is a very common
  method of implementing simple virtual domains.

It was never supported. The value has always only be documented as a
list of domains.

We actually documented that in NEWS.Debian for exim4 4.62-7, so your
debugging session would have been significantly shorter if you had
actually read the docs before installing the software.

  Now, with your update, our existing setup broke, and it just simply
  didn't occur to us, that the update script could be so stupid as to
  REPLACE the semicolons, instead of HALTING WITH AN ERROR (or a
  warning), which would be a reasonable behaviour in such situations.

Halting with an error if semicolons are found in an input field that
is supposed to be a semicolon-separated list is kind of a non-option,
don't you agree?

If you disagree with the maintainer's decision, please take this to
debian-devel, and/or to the tech ctte.

Marc

Bug#396867: gnutls-bin: does not seem to properly handle rehandshake request

2006-11-03 Thread Marc Haber
Package: gnutls-bin
Version: 1.4.4-2
Severity: normal

Hi,

I have one internal https server (running IIS on Windows Server 2003)
which seems to request a rehandshake after the http request was
transmitted. This seems to badly confuse gnutls-cli:

| $ gnutls-cli -p 443 a.b.c.d
| Resolving 'a.b.c.d'...
| Connecting to 'a.b.c.d:443'...
| - Certificate type: X.509
|  - Got a certificate list of 1 certificates.
| 
|  - Certificate[0] info:
|  # The hostname in the certificate does NOT match 'a.b.c.d'.
|  # valid since: Wed Jul 20 12:23:32 CEST 2005
|  # expires at: Wed Sep  9 12:34:44 CEST 2009
|  # fingerprint: 6B:22:44:F3:22:CC:BA:36:64:70:0F:C0:D5:CD:87:9E
|  # Subject's DN:

|  # Issuer's DN: CN=unqualifiedname
|
|
| - Peer's certificate issuer is unknown
| - Peer's certificate is NOT trusted
| - Version: TLS 1.0
| - Key Exchange: RSA
| - Cipher: ARCFOUR 128
| - MAC: MD5
| - Compression: NULL
| - Handshake was completed
|
| - Simple Client Mode:
|
| GET / HTTP/1.0
| 
| *** Non fatal error: Rehandshake was requested by the peer.

After this, nothing happens any more. Ctrl-C out.

Trying the same with openssl s_client -connect a.b.c.d:443 works fine.
With other servers (for example running apache on Linux), gnutls-cli
works fine as well.

Greetings
Marc
