Function find_local() cycles through all interfaces and collects addresses associated with them. Though it only gets one (first) address from each interface. In case when lo0 has aliased ip besides 127.0.0.1, the latter may be not the first associated with lo0 in the list returned by sysctl(NET_RT_IFLIST). That way the aliased ip will be further treated as local and 127.0.0.1 as non-local. >How-To-Repeat: # iconfig lo0 1.2.3.4 netmask 0xfffffff alias # killall -9 portmap # portmap -v # mountd After this portmapper claims to syslog that request from mountd has come not from local address. >Fix: Check if the interface has aliased ip addresses and in that case copy them all to internal local addresses array. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
