Description Per Cederberg 2004-08-03 07:17:46 UTC 
The default configuration file (/etc/knockd.conf) for the net-misc/knock-0.3 package contains an invalid path to iptables:

/usr/sbin/iptables

The correct path on a Gentoo system is:

/sbin/iptables

This means that the upstream configuration file should be replaced and/or patched.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
Problem is shown when running knockd and sending the correct port knock sequence.
Actual Results:  
[08/03/04 15:24] opencloseSSH: running command: /usr/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -s
1.2.3.4 -p tcp --dport 22 -j ACCEPT

[08/03/04 15:24] opencloseSSH: command returned non-zero status code (127)


Expected Results:  
[08/03/04 15:57] opencloseSSH: running command: /sbin/iptables -A INPUT -s
1.2.3.4 -p tcp --dport 22 -j ACCEPT


The emerge info shouldn't be relevant in this case, but here we go:
