Thanks for the tip.  I'll give that a try.  I would think with the 
/home/vpopmail/etc/tcp.smtp.cdb file having 744 permissions, qmail-smtpd 
would be able to access the file just fine.

I'll give it a whirl and see what happens!  :)  By the way, I've just 
noticed the /home/vpopmail/etc/tcp.smtp.cdb file isn't being 
automatically updated as clearopensmtp runs:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] qmail-smtpd]# dir -l /home/vpopmail/etc
total 20
-rw-r--r--    1 vpopmail vchkpw         25 Oct 18 11:11 inc_deps
-rw-r--r--    1 vpopmail vchkpw         48 Oct 18 11:11 lib_deps
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root           57 Nov 22 08:08 open-smtp
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root            0 Nov 22 08:08 open-smtp.lock
-rw-r--r--    1 vpopmail vchkpw         73 Nov 21 00:46 tcp.smtp
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root         2170 Nov 21 00:48 tcp.smtp.cdb
[EMAIL PROTECTED] qmail-smtpd]#
See how my open-smtp file is dated 11/22, yet tcp.smtp.cdb is dated 
11/21.  Does that mean things are more seriously hosed than I had thought?

Thanks...

Peace...
