Package: postgrey
Version: 1.31.-3.2
Severity: critical
After secure update of glibc (DSA-2058), postfix can not bind to port 60000
at 127.0.0.1, by try to bind to port #012 at 127.0.0.1
>From the mail.log of postfix: Binding to TCP port 60000 on host 127.0.0.1#012
When I invoke netstat with arguments -pan from a root shell prompt it gives
that there is no process listening at port 60000:
Here is a transcript:
# netstat -pan | grep 60000
#
When I invoke portgrey with arguments -v --inet=127.0.0.1:60000 from a root
shell prompt:
#/usr/sbin/postgrey -v --inet=127.0.0.1:60000
Here is a transcript:
postgrey (type Net::Server::Multiplex) starting! pid(6721)
Binding to TCP port 60000 on host 127.0.0.1
ERROR: Can't connect to TCP port 60000 on 127.0.0.1
[Cannot assign requested address] at /usr/sbin/postgrey line 745
I am using Debian GNU/Linux 5.0, kernel 2.6.26-2 and libc6 2.7-18lenny4.
Postfix 2.5.5-1.1.
This problem is some times repeatable on different platforms.
