Hello again: This email is in reference to a problem I reported back in December 18, 2003. Well, due to shortage of time as my real job kept me very busy, I never got an opportunity to try vs1.21 on my kernel 2.4.23 as suggested by Herbert.
Just yesterday I decided to upgrade my kernel to 2.4.24 which I patched with vs1.22 in hopes of making it work, but it didn't. Now that I'm running 2.4.24-vs1.22, I'm still having the same problem I was experiencing back in December: -------------------------------------------------- Jan 10 10:14:14 moses sm-mta[3237]: NOQUEUE: SYSERR(root): opendaemonsocket: daemon MTA-RX: cannot bind: Address already in use Jan 10 10:14:14 moses sm-mta[3237]: daemon MTA-RX: problem creating SMTP socket Jan 10 10:14:19 moses sm-mta[3237]: NOQUEUE: SYSERR(root): opendaemonsocket: daemon MTA-RX: cannot bind: Address already in use Jan 10 10:14:19 moses sm-mta[3237]: daemon MTA-RX: problem creating SMTP socket Jan 10 10:14:19 moses sm-mta[3237]: NOQUEUE: SYSERR(root): opendaemonsocket: daemon MTA-RX: server SMTP socket wedged: exiting -------------------------------------------------- Here is the output of lsof -i (grep sendmail) where both the HOST and CLIENT should show the same output. ----- HOST ------- sendmail 3165 root 4u IPv4 56533 TCP *:25 (LISTEN) sendmail 3165 root 5u IPv4 56534 TCP *:587 (LISTEN) sendmail 3167 root 4u IPv4 56531 TCP localhost:10025 (LISTEN) ----- CLIENT ------- sendmail 3240 root 4u IPv4 58614 TCP christngraphics.com:10025 (LISTEN) The new question is, how do I back out the vs1.22 patch in order to try vs1.21?

I would ask you to try vs1.21, and see if this works for you, and to locate the address/port the daemon tries to bind to ... maybe you could provide the following on a web site: * output of lsof -i * your vserver configurations * your host service configuration TIA, Herbert > I hope somebody can help, > Ronald Vazquez _______________________________________________ Vserver mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver
