Hello Roland,

Thanks for chiming in. Are you perhaps referring to
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=740945 ? If so, are you
aware that changing /etc/srp_daemon.conf was not necessary because of the
PORTS=NONE setting in /etc/default/srptools? BTW, I just reinstalled srptools
on an Ubuntu 17.04 system (apt-get remove -y srptools && dpkg --purge srptools
&& rm -f /etc/default/srptools /etc/srp_daemon.conf && rm -rf
/var/cache/apt/archives && apt-get install -y srptools). From what I see in
the installed configuration files it looks like the change you mentioned has
either not been applied or it has been reverted?

# head -n 99 /etc/default/srptools /etc/srp_daemon.conf   
==> /etc/default/srptools <==
#How often should srpdeamon  rescan the fabric (seconds)
RETRIES=60

#Where should srp-deamon log to
LOG=/var/log/srp_daemon.log

# What ports should srp-deamon be started on.
# Format is CA:port
# ALL or NONE will run on all ports on none
# respectively

PORTS=NONE
#PORTS=ALL
#PORTS="mthca0:1 mlx4_0:2"

==> /etc/srp_daemon.conf <==
## This is an example rules configuration file for srp_daemon.

#This is a comment
## disallow the following dgid

## allow target with the following ioc_guid
#a       ioc_guid=00a0b80200402bd7
## allow target with the following pkey
#a       pkey=ffff
## allow target with the following id_ext and ioc_guid
#a       id_ext=200500A0B81146A1,ioc_guid=00a0b80200402bef
## disallow all the rest

## Here is another example:

## Allow all targets and set queue size to 128.
# a      queue_size=128,max_cmd_per_lun=128
