Bug Description
It is possible to bind the iscsitarget daemon (ietd) to a specific IP address and port number, but only by using the --address and --port command-line options: there is no way to do so in the configuration file. The /etc/init.
My proposal is to append "-- $IETD_ARGS" to the start-stop-daemon line in ietd_start() (as well as IETD_ARGS= earlier-on), so that it becomes possible to set this variable in /etc/default/
I have made the above changes locally, but now run the risk that if the /etc/init.

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We appreciate the difficulties you are facing, but this appears to be a "regular" (non-security) bug. I have unmarked it as a security issue since this bug does not show evidence of allowing attackers to cross privilege boundaries nor directly cause loss of data/privacy. Please feel free to report any other bugs you may find.
