so here is my problem... I did find some mention of
this problem in the archives, but no solution to this
problem.
I installed qmail as per
http://www.lifewithqmail.org/lwq.html (including pop3)
now what i see is multilog: fatal: unable to lock
directory /var/log/qmail: temporary failure
I checked over this page many times, and can not see
that I did anything wrong. Did I miss something?
My other comment is that under section 5.2.1.2
it should tell you to make the following dirs
(/var/log/qmail/pop3d /var/log/qmail/pop3d/log)
before creating those files since the system won't
allow you to make the files when the dirs don't exist
(at least on my system it won't).
My mail server is running right now, but any messages
I send don't leave my system, and I don't receive any
messages.
if this has been explained somewhere I apologize, but
I could not find an answer.
I'm running debian linux with kernel 2.4.5, and i'm
not a linux guru.
