Wow -- I never expected anyone would see that error message.
getprotobyname() is a library function that finds the ID number for the
UDP protocol. (spamdyke needs that ID number so it can perform DNS
queries.) Protocols and their IDs are typically listed in
/etc/protocols (you can confirm this by looking at the man page for
getprotobyname() on your system). In that file, look for a line like this:
udp 17 UDP
If you're getting this error, I'd be amazed if any UDP-based services
work correctly on your server (including DNS resolutions).

Hi :)
i have searched allready the archives and the net but did not find anything ..
i get the following error when i run spamdyke on one server:
ERROR: unable to find protocol number with getprotobyname()
Spamdyke works very well on 4 other servers (3 time opensuse and 1
time Debian 3.x)
But on my new Server Debian 4.0 AMD64 2 GB Ram i get every time when i
put spamdyke in my conf (/service/qmail-smtpd/run):
QMAILDUID=`id -u vpopmail`
NOFILESGID=`id -g vpopmail`
MAXSMTPD=`cat /var/qmail/control/concurrencyincoming`
exec /usr/local/bin/softlimit -m 1200 \
/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -v -H -R -l 0 \
-x /home/vpopmail/etc/tcp.smtp.cdb -c $MAXSMTPD \
-u $QMAILDUID -g $NOFILESGID 0 smtp \
/usr/local/bin/spamdyke -f /etc/spamdyke.conf \
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd \
/home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /bin/true 21
the error...
i use netqmail-1.05/simscan/spamassassin/clamav with the latest
spamdyke version my conf for spamdyke:

any idea how i can fix that error? or how i can find out more about it?
when i remove the line in the run conf file the error is gone ..
Thanks for any help and answer :-)
regards
Stefan
