Re: [SECURITY] [DSA 1172-1] New bind9 packages fix denial of service
Hello Sirs,
A quick bug report for the list. Can someone second this behaviour?
This package created a new group 'bind' and uses this for access to the
pid file (as defined in the init.d script).
But on my (upgraded from woody) - sarge install bind and not in the
bind group so it failed with:
Sep 9 00:28:15 stan named[5638]: couldn't open pid file
'/var/run/bind/run/named.pid': Permission denied
Sep 9 00:28:15 stan named[5638]: exiting (due to early fatal error)
I just had to change the 'bind' users group to the new bind group.
Dave,
