Hi,
As part of the never-ending quest for security, I have recompiled
the RPC portmap daemon to use the tcp wrapper lib, libwrap.XXX.
The problem arises during boot:
a) I linked portmap dynamically
b) libwrap.so.XX gets installed (by default) in /usr/local/lib
c) portmap won't load, since ld.so can't find libwrap
(note, /usr/local/lib is on the same fs as /usr on that box).
Observations:
d) portmap needs to be run early
e) ldconfig needs to be run late
Questions:
why is d) true? To mount other volumes NFS?
Solutions, your comments are solicited:
a) copy libwrap.so.XXX to /usr/lib
b) symlink instead
c) relink portmap staticly
d) run ldconfig early, then again late after all fs's are mounted.
e) add a LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/lib:/usr/local/lib" to the portmap
launch in /etc/rc
f) ? You tell me!
a) and c) are sure-fire, but which is best?
Dave
