Postfix starts OK on boot, and when I issue the command "service postfix
restart", it does restart, but just gives me those warnings.

Well, that makes sense, because as far as I can tell, everything is as
it was with my setup under 9.1.

The funny thing is, I have no idea how it knew to name the machine
node1, unless it got that from my DHCP server, but I don't think that
hands out hostnames (?). Right after install, it booted up with "node1",
just like it was before, and this was a *clean* install, I mean total
wipeout, man.

Thanks for replyin', man, maybe it's my ISP, I'm even having trouble
loading web pages, even though my router shows me connected, and I can
connect to my other box no prob.

Well, I wanted a challenge... ;-)--
