If a Unix socket is giving you trouble, go for an inet socket. man Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::DCC dcc_dccifd_path STRING This option tells SpamAssassin where to find the dccifd socket. If "dcc_dccifd_path" is not specified, it will default to looking for a socket named "dccifd" in a directory "dcc_home". The "dcc_dccifd_path" can be a Unix socket name (absolute path), or an INET socket specification in a form "[host]:port" or "host:port", where a host can be an IPv4 or IPv6 address or a host name, and port is a TCP port number. In case of an IPv6 address the brackets are required syntax. If a "dccifd" socket is found, the plugin will use it instead of "dccproc". Use option -p to dccifd to specify its inet socket binding interface, port number, and allowed client IP, e.g.: -p 127.0.0.1,6277,127.0.0.0/8 > Should it be started as root, and then drop privs? > I could add it to init.d/dccifd as:- > dccifd -I dcc:dcc -Q -G off Yes, use option -I to let it drop privileges.
