Package: telnetd Version: 0.17-36 Severity: normal telnetd does not appear to complete passing input from the child process after SIGCHLD is received. this can be shown using a short script like
#!/bin/sh echo "firstly this" sleep 1 echo "lastly this" and an entry such as this in inetd.conf to execute it someserv stream tcp nowait someuser /usr/sbin/in.telnetd -h -L /home/someuser/script the second line of printed text from the script will rarely come through. however, using the telnetd on a freebsd system (7.3 was tested in this case) it always works as expected. note: the -L option needs to be changed to -p, as that's what used there. I did confirme that the problem occurs when not using the -L/-p options and instead setting the script as the user's shell, but used them in my example above for simplicity. -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0.7 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-2-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages telnetd depends on: ii adduser 3.110 add and remove users and groups ii libc6 2.7-18lenny6 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii openbsd-inetd [inet-sup 0.20080125-2 The OpenBSD Internet Superserver ii passwd 1:4.1.1-6+lenny1 change and administer password and telnetd recommends no packages. telnetd suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
