[Apt-proxy-users] grep-dctrl

[Markus H. <mar...@gm...>]

Hi all,

firstly: GREAT idea to build a software like apt-proxy. No more tricky
using of apt-move !!!

So I installed it like it's described in the manpage. But schock when
I firstly tryed out. I get a huge list of "connection refused" messages
when I does a apt-get update on my client maschine. ...so I've tried
this and that and at the end I chaged the user in my inetd.conf file 
from ftp to root ---> and all gets right !!!
Ahh, user ftp is not allowed to write into the /var/log directory ...
but isn't this (the root-thing) a possibel security hole ?? 

Another strange thing I recognised is that when I firstly try to
install something (eg. apt-get dist upgrade) the first attempt always
failed with a connenction time out ..... 

CU Markus
