Found it. It was strace. Thanks :) Long output file though...
I'm not sure what I'm looking for in it. I'll post the file at:
http://www.scitechsoft.com/strace.txt
Some points of interest:
1. It's hacking off parts of my file, maybe?
chdir("/var/qmail") = 0
open("control/me", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK) = 5
read(5, "\0\0\0\0scitechsoft.com\n", 64) = 20
This is www.scitechsoft.com
close(5) = 0
open("control/defaultdomain", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK) = 5
read(5, "www.echsoft.com\n", 64) = 16
This is scitechsoft.com
2. What are these files? I've mainly been using "Life with qmail" as my
refernce and didn't find any mention of them...
open("control/defaulthost", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK) = -1 ENOENT (No
such file or directory)
open("control/idhost", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK) = -1 ENOENT (No such
file or directory)

I'd say that's fairly close, eh?
So, that's what qq is. I am starting to see the light. Well, at least a grey
fuzzy glow.

Just did. It reported:
instcheck: warning: /var/qmail/bin has wrong permissions
So I ran:
ls -al /var/qmail/
and trimmed out the other stuff to keep down on size....
drwxr-xr-x 12 root qmail 1024 Jul 26 09:50 .
drwxr-xr-x 20 root root 1024 Jul 20 16:20 ..
drwxrwxrwx 2 root qmail 1024 Jul 20 16:13 bin
Ok, it's probably too permisive, but the stuff should still run, right?
Thanks again.
Rob
