Description Stefan Jensen 2008-05-23 10:25:52 UTC
Description of problem:

xinetd failed with "socket bind: Invalid argument (errno = 22)" on doing ident
lookup, when the service is bind to ipv6 and USERID is used.

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

xinetd-2.3.14-14.fc8

How reproducible:

Always

Actual results:

ident lookup failed.

Expected results:

successful ident lookup on actual connection

Additional info:

from message log (ipv6-addr removed):

xinetd[13976]: socket bind: Invalid argument (errno = 22)
xinetd[13905]: START: ftp-external pid=13976 from=$ipv6address

actual service config:

service ftp
{
	disable		= no
	id		= ftp-external
	bind		= $ipv6address
	socket_type	= stream
	per_source	= 2
	flags		= IPv6
	wait		= no
	user		= root
	server		= /usr/sbin/vsftpd
	log_on_failure	+= HOST USERID
	log_on_success	+= PID HOST USERID DURATION EXIT
}

same config with ipv4 is doing the ident lookups.

Comment 1 Jan Safranek 2008-05-29 14:41:05 UTC
I've reproduced it locally and I have an experimental patch - wrong
sizeof(address) was passed to bind() call.

This message is a reminder that Fedora 8 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 8.  It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.  At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '8'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 8's end of life.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 8 is end of life.  If you 
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this 
bug to the applicable version.  If you are unable to change the version, 
please add a comment here and someone will do it for you.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events.  Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here:

Update was released long ago, dunno why Bodhi did not close this.
