Please forgive my ignorance. I'm trying to learn.
I have set up a secondary Qmail server on RedHat 7.0 and it
seems to have come up without a problem, but I'm having a
hair-pulling time trying to test if it works properly. It has
passed some basic tests. For instance I can use qmail-inject
to email other servers. But the number of processes being run
is awfully small.
This is what I get from ps -ef | grep qmail:
root 503 502 0 Mar16 ? 00:00:00 supervise qmail-send
root 505 502 1 Mar16 ? 00:54:39 supervise qmail-smtpd
qmaill 507 504 0 Mar16 ? 00:00:00 /usr/local/bin/multilog t
qmails 508 503 0 Mar16 ? 00:00:00 qmail-send
qmaill 510 506 0 Mar16 ? 00:00:00 /usr/local/bin/multilog t
root 520 508 0 Mar16 ? 00:00:00 qmail-lspawn ./Mailbox
qmailr 521 508 0 Mar16 ? 00:00:00 qmail-rspawn
qmailq 522 508 0 Mar16 ? 00:00:00 qmail-clean
root 3883 505 0 12:20 ? 00:00:00 supervise qmail-smtpd
Should there be more processes running? Why isn't tcpserver
running (keeping in mind that it isn't passing any email right now)?
Something more disturbing is that when I run mconnect without
arguments I get:
tcpclient: unable to connect to 127.0.0.1 port 25: connection refused
When I run a portsniff from another computer port 25 doesn't
show up? Is this some sort of security or is something wrong?
Maybe I'm worrying about nothing, but this seems weird.
Please be patient with the Qmail newbie. I'd be glad to supply
more information if required.
