Hi all, i have one question about qmail-smtpd.
When i boot my machine and fetch my mail, qmail-smtpd is spawned by xinetd
and everything works ok. But the second time xinetd tries to execute
qmail-smtpd, it gives the next error:
Apr 7 19:08:01 roku xinetd[1092]: execv( /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd
) failed: Bad address (errno = 14)
I guess it's not a matter of permissions, anyway i changed the owner of
qmail-smtpd from root to qmaild. If it was about permissions, execv would
had shown a bad access error.
But, when the script which launches xinetd is restarted, then every time
qmail-smtpd is spawned all work as it was expected to. No error in the
logs.
The xinetd conf i think is totally correct:
service smtp
{
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
wait = no
user = qmaild
server = /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd
server_args = ""
log_on_failure += RECORD
disable = no
}
So i have no idea why this problem appears. Somebody have any idea about
this? I hate when those strange things happens, probably something is
mistaked in my config, but i don't have a clue about what it is.
Thank you all
David Gómez
