Description Matej Kollar 2013-07-09 09:56:13 UTC

Description of problem:

  No validation is performed on bind adress and accept range. Values
  are just written into postgre config, resulting in failure during
  postgre start.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible: always/deterministic


Steps to Reproduce:
1. install.pl --managed-db
2. when asked about network related stuff, just go ahead and type some nonsense there
3. continue in process as usual

Actual results:
  Obviously wrong data is accepted and passed to config,
  starting postgre fails.

Expected results:
  Data are re-requested in case they are obviously wrong.

Additional info:
  Sanity checking should take into account both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.
  Also bind-address might be checked against available interfaces...
