Hello,
I had set up this qmail abt a month. Suddenly client cannot connect to
pop server.
In syslog i had this log.
Jan 8 10:15:41 kids inetd[80]: pop3/tcp server failing (looping),
service terminated
Restart with 'shutdown -r now' does not work.
Switch off/on system after shutdown bring back the pop3.
I had this in inetd.conf
pop3 stream tcp nowait root /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup qmail-popup
po.monja.com.sg /usr/bin/checkpassword /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d
Maildir
In rc.M
# Start the qmail daemon:
if [ -x /var/qmail/bin/qmail-start ]; then
echo "Starting qmail daemon ..."
csh -cf '/var/qmail/rc &'
fi
#
# Start the tcpserver smtp:
if [ -x /usr/local/bin/tcpserver ]; then
/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -c66 -x/etc/tcp.smtp.cdb -u7791 -g2108 0
smtp \
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd 2>&1 | /var/qmail/bin/splogger smtpd &
fi
#
Pls help interpret the error log and advise what might have possibly
gone wrong.
Thank you
