[Bug 235653] [NEW] ACL covering all IPv4 addresses is broken in 2.2.1

[Charles Lepple]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nut

$ lsb_release -rd
Description:    Ubuntu 8.04
Release:        8.04

$ apt-cache policy nut
nut:
  Installed: 2.2.1-2.1ubuntu7
  Candidate: 2.2.1-2.1ubuntu7
  Version table:
 *** 2.2.1-2.1ubuntu7 0
        500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com hardy/main Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

To accept connections from all IPv4 addresses, the following statement
would be used in /etc/nut/upsd.conf:

ACL all 0.0.0.0/0
ACCEPT all

Instead of accepting all addresses, it rejects all (the default if no
ACLs match).

This bug was fixed upstream, and released as part of nut-2.2.2. The
patch is here:

http://svn.debian.org/viewsvn/nut?rev=1269&view=rev

A temporary workaround is to create two rules which cover the full set
of IPv4 addresses:

ACL all0 0.0.0.0/1
ACL all128 128.0.0.0/1
ACCEPT all0
ACCEPT all128
