Unable to configure port for Policy Manager Proxy for Linux: port is already in use - F-Secure Community

Issue:

When executing /opt/f-secure/fspms/bin/fspms-config to configure the Policy Manager proxy, an error message stating the port is already in use is printed:



Specify the details for communication with F-Secure Policy Manager. Enter the server’s IP address or its DNS name.
Server address []: 192.168.1.100
HTTPS port [443]: 443
Port is already in use. Please enter another one.

Based on investigation, the port (here 443) is not is use.

Resolution:

The proxy config-script requires and uses the netcat command to check the availability of the port. If netcat is not installed or available, you will receive the above mentioned error message.

To resolve the issue, install netcat. In Debian, this can be installed using the following command:


# apt install netcat-traditional
