 Posted: Tue Jul 15, 2008 2:53 am Post subject: [SOLVED] dnsmasq: setting capabilities failed |
 |
|
I recently upgraded from 2.41 to 2.43. Now, when I start dnsmasq, I get the following:
| Code: |
* Starting dnsmasq ...
dnsmasq: setting capabilities failed: Operation not permitted [ !! ]
|
No config files were changed, apparently.
What gives?

Anyone?
I find it hard to believe I'm the only one experiencing this...

Can we get some log files?

This is what I get in /var/log/messages when I restart the init script:
| Code: |
Jul 16 18:11:58 woodchuck dnsmasq[24765]: exiting on receipt of SIGTERM
Jul 16 18:12:01 woodchuck dnsmasq[2316]: setting capabilities failed: Operation not permitted
Jul 16 18:12:01 woodchuck dnsmasq[2316]: FAILED to start up
|
Not very informative. I'm unaware of anywhere else it might be logging.

Could this have anything to do with CONFIG_SECURITY_CAPABILITIES in the kernel? Mine is not enabled.

How about /etc/dnsmasq.conf?

Nothing looks out of the ordinary to me.

It does...

Why did that happen and what can do to fix it?
A: Change your kernel configuration: either deselect CONFIG_SECURITY
_or_ select CONFIG_SECURITY_CAPABILITIES. Alternatively, you can
remove the need to set capabilities by running dnsmasq as root.
