Hi to everyone. First of all, I apologize for my english.I have installed conntrackd in my high availability firewall cluster and I found one problem that I can't resolve. The installation was ok, I used Heartbeat instead of Keepalived for set up the virtual ips and the conntrackd script and it seems to work fine- I have checked that both nodes can dump the internal and external cache correctly.
The problem comes when tried to use conntrackd a few minutes later since the daemon has started, for example, if I want to dump statistics collected by daemon I found this error message:
>conntrackd -s >can't connect: is conntrackd running? appropriate permissions?The commands -c -f -R -k, etc, give the same result. If I try to restart the dameon I get this message:
>conntrackd -d>lockfile `/var/lock/conntrack.lock' exists, perhaps conntrackd already running?
If I look for the conntrackd process ( ps -ef | grep conntrackd ) I found that it has disappear, so I have to delete the .lock file to be able to start ir again.
Is there any problem using heartbeat instead of keepalived? I can see it working fine for a few minutes but after that I mysteriously found this error in both nodes.
Any help or ideas would be very much appreciated. Regards Pablo Florencio.
