Does it make a difference when one puts a space between the user and group symbols (-u -g) and the numbers when starting tcp server? (For my examples, lets pretend that the qmaild uid=123 and the nofiles gid=456) In the document at: http://qmail-docs.surfdirect.com.au/docs/qmail-antirelay.html The suggested startup line for tcpserver is: /usr/local/bin/tcpserver -R -x/etc/tcp.smtp.cdb -c100 -u123 -g456 0 smtp ... The -c100 -u123 -g456 have no spaces between the -c, -u or -g and the values. The FAQ says the tcp server line is: tcpserver -v -u 123 -g 456 0 smtp ... The -u 123 -g 456 have spaces before the values. ******* So, when I originally set up qmail, I used the first method for tcpserver, -u123 and -g456. Although tcpserver worked fine, it ocasionally crashed or disappeared from the process list. I would then have to manually restart it. I would say this crash occurred around 20+ times in a 3 month period. Qmail continued on just fine. When I had problems and reinstalled, I used the second method, -u 123 -g 456. I have not had a crash since, it has been about 1 month. So, my question is, does the space matter between the -u and the value or not? Could this have been the source of my tcpserver crashes? Does it simply not matter? Joe Junkin [EMAIL PROTECTED]
