Weird! I did not expect that. I had a look at the source code, but I get no clue what it can _really_ mean. And the documentations does not mention that error, I grepped for it. if (err == EBADF) { int j, b; fds = activefds; for (j = 0; j <= maxactivefd; j++) if ( (FD_ISSET(j, &fds) && (read(j, &b, 0) == -1)) ) netsyslog(LOG_ERR, "Bad file descriptor %d", j); } and "j" is missing from your log output. Wild shot: get a copy of the configuration file from the rpm, and redo yours from scratch.
I don't understand it.
Me neither.
I have turned off my FW, but I am behind NAT (ADSL Router with NAT).
I don't know if it does matter, I can not claim to be a network expert. - -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Made with pgp4pine 1.76 iD8DBQFDbqBZtTMYHG2NR9URAs2IAJ9zh4iaPk5XdC9ojGj69Md6yXClpACeJsVx NmdheiqiscN4nO9OxqFDdpQ= =9gxG -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
