To Answer one's post is a bit embarrassing but it seems I have no choice
.
I managed to work over the PATH problem and the debug but then I
encountered a different problem :
# tail /var/log/messages
Nov 20 11:01:13 linux postfix/postsuper[17723]: fatal: scan_dir_push:
open directory defer: Permission denied
Nov 20 11:01:14 linux postfix/postfix-script: fatal: Postfix integrity
check failed!
I suspected that this has to do with the username I'm running the
service on , checking the mail/warning file I got my answer :
# tail /var/log/mail/warnings
Nov 20 11:01:13 linux postfix/postfix-script: warning: not owned by
assi: /var/spool/postfix/maildrop
verifying this showed that :
# ls -la /var/spool/postfix/maildrop/
total 8
drwx-wx--- 2 postfix postdrop 4096 Aug 18 19:34 ./
drwxr-xr-x 18 root root 4096 Nov 20 10:19 ../
So my new question is this - should I create/assign a user with
privileges to run the service or do I just change the ownership of the
files to the unprivileged user ?

Subject: postfix configuration problem
Hello
I'm trying to configure postfix (2.0.13-3MDK) server for my network and
after editing the main.cf file and running the `postalias /etc/alias` I
get the following error :
postalias: fatal: bad numerical configuration: debug_peer_level = 2?
PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin? xxgdb
/usr/lib/postfix/ & sleep 5
I haven't changed the parameters of the PATH in the file and they are
still like this
# The debugger_command specifies the external command that is executed #
when a Postfix daemon program is run with the -D option. # # Use
"command .. & sleep 5" so that the debugger can attach before # the
process marches on. If you use an X-based debugger, be sure to # set up
your XAUTHORITY environment variable before starting Postfix. #
PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin
xxgdb $daemon_directory/$process_name $process_id & sleep 5
The machine is running MDK 9.1.
Help anyone ?
