Patch to munin plugins to use nf_conntrack when ip_conntrack unavailable (2.69 KB, patch)

Description n0dalus 2007-08-17 12:12:53 UTC
Description of problem:

Recent kernels have renamed /proc/net/ip_conntrack to /proc/net/nf_conntrack. In
addition, the permissions no longer seem to allow any user to read it. This
effects the fw_conntrack and fw_forwarded_local plugins.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
munin-node-1.2.5-2.fc7

Additional info:
Attaching patch to fix both of these. Ideally it should be sent upstream, but I
will leave that up to the package maintainer.

Also, a file should be created at /etc/munin/plugin-conf.d/nf_conntrack with:
[fw_forwarded_local]
user root

[fw_conntrack]
user root

Hurray for not breaking user interfaces in the kernel. ;( 

Thanks for the report and the patch. Will see about getting this updated this
weekend. 

Comment 3 Kevin Fenzi 2007-12-01 17:05:04 UTC
I've _finally_ updated munin in devel with a version of this patch. 

If everything looks ok in devel for a few days I will update F7 and F8 and close
this. Thanks for the bug report and patch!
