Subject: cntlm starts before the network is up Package: cntlm Version: 0.35.1-5 Severity: important Tags: patch
I installed cntlm. It worked directly after the install but not after the first and subsequent reboots. The following was found in /var/log/syslog: cntlm: Starting cntlm version 0.35.1 for LITTLE endian cntlm: Proxy listening on 127.0.0.1:3128 cntlm: Cannot resolve proxy xyz.network.int:8080, discarding. cntlm: Parent proxy address missing. The syslog also revealed that the network interface is initialized after the failing start of the cntlm daemon. The daemon could be manually started by the command below: invoke-rc.d start cntlm I fixed this issue on my system by appending $network to the Required-Start and Required-Stop fields in the LSB header of the init.d script. diff -Naur a/etc/init.d/cntlm b/etc/init.d/cntlm --- a/etc/init.d/cntlm 2010-07-13 14:05:18.000000000 +0200 +++ b/etc/init.d/cntlm 2010-07-13 14:04:57.000000000 +0200 @@ -2,8 +2,8 @@ # ### BEGIN INIT INFO # Provides: cntlm -# Required-Start: $syslog $time -# Required-Stop: $syslog $time +# Required-Start: $syslog $time $network +# Required-Stop: $syslog $time $network # Default-Start: 2 3 4 5 # Default-Stop: 0 1 6 # Short-Description: Authenticating HTTP accelerator for NTLM secured proxies -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages cntlm depends on: ii adduser 3.112 add and remove users and groups ii libc6 2.11.2-2 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib cntlm recommends no packages. cntlm suggests no packages. -- Configuration Files: /etc/cntlm.conf [Errno 13] Permission denied: u'/etc/cntlm.conf' /etc/init.d/cntlm changed [not included] -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
