Description Twisted Lucidity 2017-06-23 10:35:48 UTC

This affects both the live session and when installed

Attempts at network activity (e.g. ping) results in the message:
"<command>: icmp open socket: Operation not permitted"

"sudo <command>" does work, but gives a second error message:
"sudo: /etc/sudoers.d is owned by uid 100000, should be 0"

DNS look-up (e.g. dig) also does not work, even with "sudo". No error is raised, it simply fails to resolve.

ISO: neon-useredition-20170622-1018-amd64.iso
Install environment: VirtualBox 5.1.22r115126 64bit

Comment 1 Twisted Lucidity 2017-06-23 10:46:51 UTC

The following seems to correct the sudoers.d problem:
sudo chown -R root:root /etc/sudoers.d

It does not address the networking issues.

Comment 2 Twisted Lucidity 2017-06-23 10:53:48 UTC

Once sudoers.d is repaired the following appears to address the "ping" issue.

sudo su -
apt install --reinstall iputils-ping

Dig can be repaired by a quick manual edit to "/etc/resolv.conf"
nameserver 8.8.8.8
(Any valid DNS will do)

I have not yet managed to determine why the local DNS server fails to resolve.

Comment 3 Twisted Lucidity 2017-06-23 11:07:42 UTC

The DNS issue was an issue on my part due to multiple network interfaces.

The "sudoers.d" and "ping" issues remained after testing with only one network interface attached; so those appear to be valid.

Comment 4 Andrew Crouthamel 2018-11-16 05:21:02 UTC

This does not appear to be an issue in the latest live ISO.
