Sure thing. I've tried it with two machines. It's very easy to test, and I use the default devicescan in the smartd.conf so this should be easily replicable by others if it's a problem with smartmontools rather than specific to my machine configurations. Exim4 is installed and is delivering local mail to all accounts just fine. -- Regards, Sheridan Hutchinson sheri...@shezza.org I did: invoke-rc.d smartmontools restart Sep 4 12:12:55 localhost smartd[7043]: smartd received signal 15: Terminated Sep 4 12:12:55 localhost smartd[7043]: smartd is exiting (exit status 0) Sep 4 12:12:55 localhost smartd[8830]: smartd 5.39 2009-08-29 r2879 [x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu] (local build)#012Copyright (C) 2002-9 by Bruce Allen, http://smartmontools.sourceforge.net#012 Sep 4 12:12:55 localhost smartd[8830]: Opened configuration file /etc/smartd.conf Sep 4 12:12:55 localhost smartd[8830]: Drive: DEVICESCAN, implied '-a' Directive on line 22 of file /etc/smartd.conf Sep 4 12:12:55 localhost smartd[8830]: Configuration file /etc/smartd.conf was parsed, found DEVICESCAN, scanning devices Sep 4 12:12:55 localhost smartd[8830]: Device: /dev/sda, type changed from 'scsi' to 'sat' Sep 4 12:12:55 localhost smartd[8830]: Device: /dev/sda [SAT], opened Sep 4 12:12:55 localhost smartd[8830]: Device: /dev/sda [SAT], found in smartd database.
