I have turned off NFS and the Automounter for Solaris 9. I am using " lock_method flock"
And the problem has diminished from +- 60 events to +- 10 events per hour. Small successes are a good! Thanks. The only thing I see that may be an issue but i do not see why is a soft link in /var/spool : MD-Bayes -> /private/log/defang/MD-Bayes MD-Quarantine -> /private/log/defang/MD-Quarantine MIMEDefang -> /private/log/defang/MIMEDefang The perl version is 5.8.0 Sun's precompiled binary perl-5.8.0-sol9-sparc-local from sunfreeware. I have not configured perl to run embbeded with the mimedefang startup scripts If there is another place to control perl I have not researched this as of yet. Presently the sa-mimedefang.cf file is: internal_networks 10.10.10/24 irequired_hits 3 ok_locales en rewrite_subject 0 use_bayes 1 bayes_path /var/spool/MD-Bayes/bayes lock_method flock skip_rbl_checks 1 What next to explore, any thoughts?
