Package: distributed-net
Version: 2.9013.498-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
The /etc/logrotate.d/distributed-net file included in the package does
not opecify a logfile owner, and creates /var/log/distributed-net.log as
root.
Since the daemon start/stop script for dnetc runs as the "daemon" user,
this prevents dnetc from writing to the logfile (dnetc still runs,
although the logfile is left empty).
The enclosed patch will ensure the logfile is re-created with
appropriate ownership / permissions:
