Bug 463504 – mail-filter/dcc initd script does not honour milter socket on TCP

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Stevan Bajić 2013-03-27 17:58:54 UTC]

Enabling the milter interface in DCC usually starts a file socket but DCC allows to use a TCP socket as well. This can be done in /etc/dcc/dcc_conf. Unfortunately the init.d script for DCC assumes a file socket and waits 20 seconds for the binary to create the file socket. IMHO the initd script should be extended to handle either file sockets or a normal TCP socket.

Reproducible: Always

I forgot to mention that the old init.d script has a typo too. It declares a variable called dccmtimeout (see the 'm' after 'dcc'?) but later only checks for dcctimeout (without the 'm').

Sorry. This is the right patch.
