Subject: pppoeconf: clampmss created without permission correct permission => does
 not execute on startup

Package: pppoeconf
Version: 1.0.4
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

pppoeconf creates a script

    /etc/ppp/ip-up.d/0clampmss

to make it possible to use the current machine as a gateway (many sites will not load without this script).
unfortunatly this script is created with the following permissions: 600, but it should be 755 (like the others
in this directory) to make it execute on boottime.

small bug, but serious trouble ;)

hope this helps

Bastian

Looks fine to me:

     if [ "$kernel_pppoe" ]; then
        printf "#!/bin/sh\n# Enable MSS clamping (autogenerated by
pppoeconf)\n\niptables -A FORWARD -p tcp --tcp-flags SYN,RST SYN -m tcpmss --mss

Outdated like hell and fixed many weeks ago. Sarge should really include
the current version from Debian unstable (1.0.9). Forwarding to -release now.
