Package: sslh
Version: 1.7a-2
Severity: important
Tags: patch

Hello,

I am using sslh configured in standalone, without inetd installed.
The initscript /etc/init.d/sslh checks for /etc/inetd.conf
file before doing egrep, but apparently even with test -a it
tries to egrep the file, so sslh fails to start.
I am suggesting a patch using shell condition ] && [ instead of
test -a. It fixed the problem for me.

How to reproduce the bug:
# invoke-rc.d sslh start
egrep: /etc/inetd.conf: No such file or directory

and sslh is not started.

My patch:
# diff -u /etc/init.d/sslh{.old,}
