Package: pmacct
Version: 1.5.0-4
Severity: normal
File: /usr/sbin/pmacctd

Dear Maintainer,

I'm using pmacctd configured as so:

! pmacctd configuration
!
!
!
daemonize: true
pidfile: /var/run/pmacctd.pid
syslog: daemon
!
! interested in in and outbound traffic
aggregate[in]: dst_mac
aggregate[out]: src_mac
! on this interface
interface: eth0
!
plugins: memory[in], memory[out]
plugin_pipe_size: 10240000
plugin_buffer_size: 10240
imt_path[in]: /tmp/eth0-in.pipe
imt_path[out]: /tmp/eth0-out.pipe

When I view the list of entries using "pmacct -p /tmp/eth0-in.pipe -s" I see something like:

DST_MAC            PACKETS               BYTES
00:16:3e:48:33:91  370                   27986
00:16:3e:18:49:67  1966                  210362
....

This is as expected.

When I try to query for a single MAC address using "pmacct -p /tmp/eth0-in.pipe -c dst_mac -M '00:16:3e:18:49:67'", I get:

DST_MAC            PACKETS               BYTES

For a total of: 0 entries

The MAC address is in the full list - but an exact match fails.

This has already been fixed upstream. See this commit: https://github.com/paololucente/pmacct/commit/f8bbe871d0518f6b7b34dda5790d2e735336d02a

Testing at that time must have been 1.6.0-1. Closing accordingly.
