Hi all,

I’m a Linux newbie, so I think this may have to do with that end of things, since I seem to have a problem there as well.

 

I have Redhat Fedora Core 3.  I have spamd running with –d to daemonize, –i to allow all IPs.  Even if I leave at the defaults and run it, spamc test on that box just sits at the command line and doesn’t do anything.  Running a test with spamassassin from the command line gives the expected output on the 2 test files.  I don’t know where to find any helpful info about what is going wrong.  Turning on debug with spamc –l doesn’t do anything either.

 

On the IMail end (IMail 8.15, Declude JunkMail Pro v. 1.81 on Windows 2000) when I run spamd as follows:

 

spamc32.exe -d <linux spamd server IP> -f C:\Mail-SpamAssassin-3.0.2\sample\sample-spam.txt -$ > c:\results.txt

 

I get results.txt containing:

 

SPAMC32: Max file size 32000

SPAMC32: CHECK option selected

SPAMC32: Current weight -1

SPAMC32: Skip-if weight -1

SPAMC32: SPAMD IP 169.204.52.18

SPAMC32: SPAMD port 783

SPAMC32: High threshold -1

SPAMC32: Low threshold -1

SPAMC32: Timeout 10

SPAMC32: Filename C:\Mail-SpamAssassin-3.0.2\sample\sample-spam.txt

SPAMC32: Loading C:\Mail-SpamAssassin-3.0.2\sample\sample-spam.txt

 

And the debug output on the DOS console shows:

 

SPAMC32: Message Length = 825

SPAMC32: Connecting to 169.204.52.18:783

SPAMC: Connected to :783

SPAMC: Socket Closed

SPAMC32: Retrying connection to 169.204.52.18:783

SPAMC: Connected to :783

SPAMC32: Sending Data to SpamD...

SPAMC32: SENT 60 REMAINING 0

SPAMC32: Send Complete

SPAMC32: Message Data not sent to SpamD!

 

Is the SPAMC part of this the problem?  It appears from the output that it’s connecting to the spamd server, but then closing right away.  However, I don’t have a spamc.exe on my drive.  Maybe the SPAMC in the output is just generated by SPAMC32 then.

 

I did install a Windows spamd server and it works fine with SPAMC32….

 

I have looked all over the Web for answers, but I think my lack of familiarity with Linux may be causing me to miss something.

 

SPAMD is running as root on the Linux box.

 

Thanks for any ideas.  Maybe there’s just a “duh” sort of solution?
