One question: Are the name servers in your /etc/resolv.conf file also in
your James config.xml file in the config/dnsserver/servers tag? Those
should be the same.

Thanks for the follow up - no, I haven't found a solution yet, but it
seems to work ok even with the errors shown, so it got pushed down my
todo list...
Regarding #1, I think this is not a James issue per-se (other than an
error in the wiki about how to set up James as a daemon), but
something about the ubuntu/debian startup sequence which causes James
to load before the appropriate network services are set up - I've
discussed this with some linux ppl, tried a few configuration changes,
but still haven't nailed it. I'll keep at it when I have the time, and
when I come up with a solution, I'll update the wiki and/or reply to
this thread...
Of course, if anyone has suggestions in the meanwhile, I'd very much
appreciate help :-)
As for #2 and #3, I didn't get an authoritative reply, but I'm
assuming for the time being that it is not in fact an error (I didn't
notice any side effects yet), and that the dnsserver component is in
fact a dns client (it makes more sense).

Did you ever solve this issue? Looking at the thread it looks like
you may not have (at least no such notice was sent to the list).

Hi,
I'm migrating JAMES (2.3.1) from Windows to Ubuntu Jaunty, installed
as a daemon following the guidelines in the james wiki, and seem to
have some DNS problems. If started from the command line, everyting
runs fine. But when started by a reboot, the dnsserver* log show
that no dns server was auto-detected, as well as
java.net.PortUnreachableExceptions when trying to send a message,
and the james* log shows the error: "ERROR James: Cannot get IP
address(es) for domain.name". I tried to workaround this by
explicitly specifying the dns server in the configuration, and now
sending messages works ok (no exception), but the latter error
remains. So -
1. What reasons might it have to fail at dns autodiscovery only
during boot time?
2. Is the error "Cannot get IP address(es) for domain.name" really
an error? What implications might this have? Since with the
explicitly configured dns server, both sending and receiving
messages seem to be ok even with the error shown...
3. Is the dns component really a dns server (as the log name
implies)? or a dns client? Should I configure the firewall for a dns
server?
Any help would be much appreciated :-)
