Try adding a -D to the init.d spamd call and see if it gives you any more
info on why it's failing.
Thanks for the quick reply. I did use the -D option and it doesn't give
anymore information at all. Basically the error is contained in these two
lines (and I have to paraphrase a little because I'm writing from the
other machine)
spamd: connection from 192.168.1.3 at port 2678
config: failed to load user ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) scores from SQL database :
config: SQL error: Can't connect to MySQL server on 192.168.1.3 (13)
That's not much to go on is it? That's what seems to be making this so
hard for me to figure out.
You might want to check if the username/password you're using to connect to
MySQL actually exist, and if you've added them since the last time you
restarted MySQL, that you've run the "flush privilges" command. Other than
that, is the UNIX socket in a location other than the default
/tmp/mysql.sock? Or is it running on a port other than 3306?
