I've had the kernel upgraded since December 2003, the problem didn't appear until the 8th of March. I followed Chris' instructions and the server came up as normal. I had already tried the export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL values in various places- etc/init.d/xmail, /etc/profile, each place individually of course. Also, I tried "2.4" and "2.4.1", nothing seemed to work until I followed the instructions and cleared those directories out. Don't worry- this is a low mail-volume server, mainly backup for our organization's main mail server which runs 7.2 RH and is fine. I cleared the spool, wasn't very much in there anyway. I'm glad to have the backup back online though. :) -Jim ----- Original Message ----- From: "Sasa Stupar" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, March 09, 2004 1:03 AM Subject: [xmail] Re: XMail having trouble starting
