Have you looked at the errors? Run in debug mode? Run from cli first? Also, if amavis changes to non root user before binding to those ports, most security settings on most operating systems would prevent non root users from binding to ports < 1024. There may be some sysctls that would change that, but that is beyond the scope of this mailing list. -- Michael Scheidell, CTO Office: 561-999-5000 x 1259 Direct: 561-939-7259 Real time security alerts: http://www.secnap.com/news _________________________________________________________________________ This email has been scanned and certified safe by SpammerTrap(tm).
