The good news is, XMail is finally running properly. The bad news is, I'm not exactly sure how.
> To prevent sendmal from runnig under Freebsd, add to /etc/rc.conf the following: "sendmail_enable = NONE". However, I don't know why sendmail would interfere with CtrlClnt, or if it would. You can do a ps > -alx | grep sendmail to see if it's running. I did try to turn off sendmail. When I rebooted, Xmail started up fine, and I could use CtrlClnt. /etc/rc.sendmail # This script is used by /etc/rc at boot time to start sendmail. It # is meant to be sendmail specific and not a generic script for all # MTAs. It is only called by /etc/rc if the rc.conf mta_start_script is # set to /etc/rc.sendmail. This provides the opportunity for other MTAs # to provide their own startup script. /etc/defaults/rc.conf mta_start_script="/etc/rc.sendmail" SO I ADDED THIS LINE TO /etc/rc.conf ABOVE OTHER SERVICES mta_start_script="/usr/local/etc/rc.d/xmailserverstart.sh" Then I rebooted. Funny thing is, NONE of the services defined in /etc/rc.conf (except IPFILTER) are starting up on reboot, and "ps" yields the exact same results as reported before for sendmail: >>james# ps -alx | grep sendmail >> 0 394 390 164 8 0 1632 1100 wait I+ con 0:00.00 >>/bin/sh /usr/sbin/sendmail -L sm-mta -bd -q30m -ODaemonPortOpt >> 0 395 394 164 116 0 2772 1804 select I+ con 0:00.01 >>/usr/sbin/sendmail.xmail -L sm-mta -bd -q30m -ODaemonPortOptio Here's to happy XMailing! ross PS Happy Father's Day to those who code with kids. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe xmail" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For general help: send the line "help" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
