Package: nagstamon Version: 0.9.4-1 Severity: normal When stracing nagstamon to attempt to work out why I'm seeing the "ERROR: please check settings/network" message (there were no issues with the servers or network at the time), I noticed a broken attempt at DNS resolution:

Interestingly, the other threads which were dealing with my other two servers had no problems resolving names: munmap(0x7f3c2e107000, 4096) = 0 stat("/etc/resolv.conf", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=231, ...}) = 0 socket(PF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM|SOCK_NONBLOCK, IPPROTO_IP) = 11 connect(11, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(53), sin_addr=inet_addr("192.168.5.1")}, 16) = 0 poll([{fd=11, events=POLLOUT}], 1, 0) = 1 ([{fd=11, revents=POLLOUT}]) sendto(11, "i\230\1\0\0\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\6secure\tcrustynet\3or"..., 41, MSG_NOSIGNAL, NULL, 0) = 41 poll([{fd=11, events=POLLIN|POLLOUT}], 1, 5000) = 1 ([{fd=11, revents=POLLOUT}]) sendto(11, "\334\367\1\0\0\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\6secure\tcrustynet\3or"..., 41, MSG_NOSIGNAL, NULL, 0) = 41 poll([{fd=11, events=POLLIN}], 1, 4999) = 1 ([{fd=11, revents=POLLIN}]) ioctl(11, FIONREAD, [173]) = 0 recvfrom(11, "i\230\201\200\0\1\0\2\0\4\0\0\6secure\tcrustynet\3or"..., 2048, 0, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(53), sin_addr=inet_addr("192.168.5.1")}, [16]) = 173 poll([{fd=11, events=POLLIN}], 1, 4997) = 1 ([{fd=11, revents=POLLIN}]) ioctl(11, FIONREAD, [102]) = 0 recvfrom(11, "\334\367\201\200\0\1\0\1\0\1\0\0\6secure\tcrustynet\3or"..., 1875, 0, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(53), sin_addr=inet_addr("192.168.5.1")}, [16]) = 102 close(11) = 0 I was able to fix the problem by going into the settings, editing the server in question (making no changes) and then saving it. This restarted the thread that was checking that server, and all seems fine for now. I expect it will happen again though. I've not been able to find what triggers this.. it just seems to happen after nagstamon has been running for a while. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_GB.UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages nagstamon depends on: ii librsvg2-common 2.26.3-1 SAX-based renderer library for SVG ii python 2.6.5-13 interactive high-level object-orie ii python-eggtrayicon 2.25.3-5 Python module to display icons in ii python-glade2 2.17.0-4 GTK+ bindings: Glade support ii python-gtk2 2.17.0-4 Python bindings for the GTK+ widge ii python-lxml 2.2.6-1 pythonic binding for the libxml2 a ii python-pkg-resources 0.6.14-1 Package Discovery and Resource Acc ii python-support 1.0.9 automated rebuilding support for P ii sox 14.3.1-1+b1 Swiss army knife of sound processi nagstamon recommends no packages. nagstamon suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- Chris Butler <chr...@debian.org> GnuPG Key ID: 4096R/49E3ACD3 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
