kea >= 1:3.0.3-6 update requires manual intervention
The
kea package has moved all services to run as a dedicated kea user (instead of root) for improved security. This change requires permission updates to the runtime files created by the kea services.Users upgrading from an existing
kea installation should therefore run the following commands after the upgrade:chown kea: /var/lib/kea/* /var/log/kea/* /run/lock/kea/logger_lockfilesystemctl try-restart kea-ctrl-agent.service kea-dhcp{4,6,-ddns}.serviceAccounts that need to interact with
kea services files (e.g. lease files under /var/lib/kea, log files under /var/log/kea or configuration files under /etc/kea) should be added to the kea group.source
