Definitely not already running: [ttyp3:poseidon] [/var/ftp] > ps axuw|grep sendmail [ttyp3:poseidon] [/var/ftp] > Sendmail was going along just fine until: Nov 14 01:00:23 poseidon sendmail[24554]: NOQUEUE: SYSERR(root): opendaemonsocke t: cannot listen: Bad file descriptor Nov 14 01:00:23 poseidon sendmail[24554]: problem creating SMTP socket and that's when the fun seemed to start. There were no more log entries for received mail (from the outside world) since that point, so it's likely that sendmail died around then, especially since I also see: Nov 14 01:00:23 poseidon sendmail[24554]: problem creating SMTP socket Nov 14 01:00:23 poseidon /kernel: pid 24554 (sendmail), uid 0: exited on signal 11 Nov 14 01:29:08 poseidon /kernel: pid 150 (sendmail), uid 0: exited on signal 10 Nov 14 01:29:08 poseidon /kernel: pid 25380 (sendmail), uid 0: exited on signal 11 where 150 was the parent process. I guess I need to find lsof and compile it and see if I can see what's holding port 25 hostage. whatever it is: > telnet localhost 25 Trying 127.0.0.1... telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused it's not doing much :) -=| Ben To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
