Whenever I try to use the -o flag with raccess, it just hangs after doing its portscan, and fails to continue or detect the OS. I've left it for over 15 minutes on hosts of multiple types, far longer than nmap -O takes, so I'm willing to believe this is a bug. Here's my emerge info: Portage 2.0.50-r11 (default-x86-2004.2, gcc-3.3.4, glibc-2.3.3.20040420-r1, 2.6.8-gentoo-r2) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.8-gentoo-r2 i686 AMD Athlon(tm) XP 2200+ Gentoo Base System version 1.4.16 distcc 2.16 i686-pc-linux-gnu (protocols 1 and 2) (default port 3632) [enabled] ccache version 2.3 [enabled] Autoconf: sys-devel/autoconf-2.59-r4 Automake: sys-devel/automake-1.8.5-r1 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-march=athlon-xp -Os -mfpmath=sse -pipe" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" COMPILER="" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.2/share/config /usr/kde/3.3/share/config:/usr/kde/3.3/env:/usr/kde/3.3/shutdown /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/lib/mozilla/defaults/pref /usr/share/config /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-march=athlon-xp -Os -mfpmath=sse -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoaddcvs ccache distcc fixpackages sandbox" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://gentoo.oregonstate.edu http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/gentoo" MAKEOPTS="-j4" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="3dnow 3dnowex X aac aalib acpi aim alsa apache2 apm arts avi berkdb bitmap-fonts blender-game bootsplash bzlib calendar cdparanoia cdr crypt cups curl curlwrappers devfs26 dts dvd dvdr dvdread encode escreen esd exif faac faad fam fbcon ffmpeg fftw flac foomaticdb freetype gd gdbm geoip gif gimp gimpprint gnome gpm gstreamer gtk gtk2 image imagemagick imap imlib imlib2 jabber java joystick jpeg kerberos ldap libcaca libg++ libgda libwww live lufsusermount lzo lzw lzw-tiff mad matroska matrox md5sum mdb mikmod mime mixer mmap mmx mmx2 mng mono motif mozcalendar mozilla mozsvg mpeg mpeg4 mplayer msn mysql mysqli ncurses network nls ntlm oggvorbis openal opengl oss pam pdf pdflib perl php pic png pnp psyco pthreads python qt quicktime readline rtc samba sasl sdl shared sharedmem slang sockets spell sqlite sse ssl svg svga t1lib tcpd theora tiff transcode truetype usb video_cards_matrox wifi x86 xine xinerama xml2 xmms xosd xpm xprint xrandr xv xvid xvmc yahoo yv12 zlib zvbi"
This is not a security issue, this is a bug in a package. no-herd -> bug-wranglers
