Hi,
I got help from kind people to get selective relaying to work in my server yesterday
(there was a nonallowed space (allow, RELAYCLIENT) in tcp.smtp file).
But as the server is away from me (worked through the net) I couldn't notice some
other problem rising while I was doing those attempts to make it work.
Namely, a few minutes ago I went to the school that owns the server and saw what's
going on.
On the first console there are only running error messages:
supervise: fatal: unable to start log/run: file does not exist
supervise: fatal: unable to start log/run: file does not exist
supervise: fatal: unable to start log/run: file does not exist
supervise: fatal: unable to start log/run: file does not exist
supervise: fatal: unable to start log/run: file does not exist
svscan: warning: unable to stat smtpd: file does not exist
I loged in from another console and commented out a line from /etc/inittab:
# SV:123456:respawn:env - PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/bin svscan /service
</dev/null>/dev/console 2>/dev/console
after kill -HUP 1 the messages stopped to run, so, of course smtp, too.
Can anybody suggest whether I wrote something wrong in the line in inittab or should I
check /service directory and files in it?
I have additionally to mention that everything (sending, receiving, selective
relaying, pop3) works fine, but anyway have to get rid of those messages,
or of the reason of the messages I ment.
And what else, with 'ps -auxww | more' I still get 'root 5913 0.0 0.0 0
0 ? Z 16:58 0:00 [supervise <defunct>]', which I think is
connected the problem described, or am I wrong?
Hope to get your little attention. Thanks.
RR
