In additions, I can see two tcpserver is running under the command of ps-aux
 
1. tcpserver is running under user "root"
2. tcpserver is running under user "qmaild"
 
Is this the only reason that causes error ??

Subject: tcpserver error

Hi,
 
   I have just installed qmail with tcpserver (following life with qmail), in my /var/log/qmail/smtpd/current file, the errors messages stating that "tcpserver: fatal: unable to bind: address already used." and this message keeps generating itself until filling up all of the space.  Please help me to point out for the error.
 
my startup script in /var/qmail/supervise/qmail-smtpd/run file are as follows:
 
#!/bin/sh
QMAILDUID=`id -u qmaild`
NOFILESGID=`id -u qmaild`
exec /usr/local/bin/softlimit -m 4000000 \
        /usr/local/bin/tcpserver -v -p -x /etc/tcp.smtp.cdb \
        -u $QMAILDUID -g $NOFILESGID 0 smtp \
        /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smptd 2>&1 > /dev/null &
 
Thank you so much for your help
 
Mark
