Hi,
I am trying to install qmail on an PowerPC G3 Server, running YellowDogLinux
ChampionServer 1.1 (a RedHat-based Linux distribution for the PPC). I
followed Adam McKenna's HOWTO step-by-step, and all seemed to work fine for
smtp, but then I tried to start qpop3d and now qmail refuses to start,
giving memory allocation errors, and I don't know how to fix them..here's
exactly what I did:
1)installed qmail + all the packages (checkpassword, daemontools, ucspi,
etc)
2) got the init script for qmail (the one from Adam McKenna's page, it
starts qmail-smtpd under tcpserver), and copied it to my init-scripts dir
3) tested successfully that i could use qmail-smtpd to send messages - both
locally and from other systems.
4) changed the qmail init script so that it started qmail-qpop3d under
tcpserver - I copied this from the Life with qmail page
(http://Web.InfoAve.Net/~dsill/lwq.html)
5) tried to restart qmail, and got this error message:

#  /etc/rc.d/init.d/qmail start
Starting mail-transfer agent: qmailcsh: error in loading shared libraries:
libc.so.6: failed to map segment from shared object: Cannot allocate memory
.
/etc/rc.d/init.d/qmail: xmalloc: cannot allocate 8 bytes (0 bytes allocated)
/etc/rc.d/init.d/qmail: xmalloc: cannot allocate 8 bytes (0 bytes allocated)
/etc/rc.d/init.d/qmail: xmalloc: cannot allocate 10 bytes (0 bytes
allocated)

I rebooted the whole system, but the problem was still there. I changed the
qmail init script back to it's original form, but still no change.
If anyone could help me with this I would be very very grateful..I'm new to
the unix/linux world, and when some cryptic error erupts I really don't know
what to do.

Thanks in advance
