--- Begin Message ---Package: pidentd Version: 3.0.19.ds1-1 Severity: important The default installation of pidentd on Debian Etch (as of 15-Feb-2007) does not work if /var/run is mounted as a tmpfs file system (using the RAMRUN=yes option in /etc/default/rcS). The problem is that pidentd tries to write its process ID to the file /var/run/identd/identd.pid (controlled by the server:pid-file directive in /etc/identd.conf); however, the appropriate directory does not exist: it needs to be recreated on each reboot. This directory IS created by the postinst script (fixing bug #56475!), but that does not help with a tmpfs file system. The solution is to include a simple /etc/init.d/pidentd script, as included below, and to link to it as /etc/rcS.d/S20pidentd (although a different number may be more appropriate). The script: #!/bin/sh [ -x /usr/sbin/identd ] || exit 0 mkdir -p /var/run/identd chown identd:nogroup /var/run/identd chmod 755 /var/run/identd Thanks in advance!
