After cruising the threads here for a fix, I found ideas, but still needed to hack around: if you use a tight firewall, or in my case, a port-scan detector/redirector such as PortSentry, this may do the job.
Enter in /etc/rc.local something similar:
#!/bin/sh -e
#
# rc.local
#
# This script is executed at the end of each multiuser runlevel.
# Make sure that the script will "exit 0" on success or any other
# value on error.
#
# In order to enable or disable this script just change the execution
# bits.
#
# By default this script does nothing.
/etc/init.d/portsentry stop ##check for the correct stop/start script for your particular app
/etc/init.d/networking start
sleep 10
/etc/init.d/portsentry start
exit 0
Substitute your ufw/guarddog/portsentry or whatever, and see if this does the trick. This was my major roadblock to adopting Intrepid, and just about beat me (I'm NOT a coder or geek type). Hope this helps someone!
Luck - O.
