Hello, looks like the bug in fw_conntrack is a bashism with the use of the shell built-in read.
$ read MAX < /proc/sys/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_conntrack_max # bash: $ echo $MAX 65536 # dash (and zsh too!): $ echo $MAX 6 Surprisingly I couldn't find any info on 'read' behavior with stdin, perhaps this should be documented on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DashAsBinSh which has some other 'read' related bits. Fix was to modify these lines: if [ -f /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_conntrack_max ] ; then read MAX </proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_conntrack_max elif [ -f /proc/sys/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_conntrack_max ]; then read MAX < /proc/sys/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_conntrack_max fi With: if [ -f /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_conntrack_max ] ; then MAX=$(cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_conntrack_max) elif [ -f /proc/sys/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_conntrack_max ]; then MAX=$(cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_conntrack_max) fi -- Gerald Turner Email: gtur...@unzane.com JID: gtur...@jabber.unzane.com GPG: 0xFA8CD6D5 21D9 B2E8 7FE7 F19E 5F7D 4D0C 3FA0 810F FA8C D6D5 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
