Since I could not get my old configuration working, I went back and set it
up according to LWQ.

Now with the new startup script:
/etc/rc.d/init.d/qmail start
Starting qmail
qmail-send service not running
qmail-smtpd service not running

I can see these processes:
root      4241  0.0  0.5  1124  348 ?        S    09:15   0:00 svscan 
/service
root      7158  0.0  0.0     0    0 ?        Z    10:10   0:00 [svscan
<defunct>]
root      7159  0.0  0.0     0    0 ?        Z    10:10   0:00 [svscan

root      7160  0.0  0.0     0    0 ?        Z    10:10   0:00 [svscan

root      7161  0.0  0.0     0    0 ?        Z    10:10   0:00 [svscan
<defunct>]

I setup a /service directory according to LWQ:

drwxrwxr-x   2 root     root         1024 Aug 24 09:08 service

/service:
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root     root           37 Aug 24 09:08 qmail-send ->
/var/qmail/supervise/qmail-send
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root     root           38 Aug 24 09:08 qmail-smtpd ->
/var/qmail/supervise/qmail-smtpd

If I go into /service and run svscan, I get the same error as before:
svscan: warning: unable to start supervise qmail-send/log: file does not
exist
svscan: warning: unable to start supervise qmail-send: file does not exist
svscan: warning: unable to start supervise qmail-smtpd: file does not
exist
svscan: warning: unable to start supervise qmail-smtpd/log: file does not
exist


I think this must be a permissions or ownership problem. Could someone
tell me where I can find a listing of what all qmail related directory
permissions and ownership should be?


TIA
