Oh, dont forget to turn off the verbose logging again by removing the -v from the changed line ;) cheers -- Kind regards, Remko Lodder Elvandar.org/DSINet.org www.mostly-harmless.nl Dutch community for helping newcomers on the hackerscene mrtg.grunn.org Dutch mirror of MRTG -----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- Van: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org]Namens Micheal Patterson Verzonden: maandag 8 maart 2004 5:52 Aan: questions@freebsd.org Onderwerp: Postfix install questions.. Tonight, I starting looking into installing postfix to replace sendmail as our primary MTA. I'm currently playing with it on my home system (fbsd 4.9) and installing from ports. The install goes well, I've went through the main.cf and set it up. However, when trying to connect to port 25, I get an error "postfix fatal: unsupported dictionary type: " and nothing else. postconf -m shows: static pcre regexp environ proxy btree unix hash I've looked through google and it seems that every entry displaying unsupported dictionary type shows hash, mysql, etc but nothing just simply "empty". Am I correct in thinking that for some reason, postfix doesn't see hash as a viable type even though it's found and compiled in? Error log entries in mailllog show: Mar 7 22:51:13 caverns postfix/smtpd[3564]: fatal: unsupported dictionary type: Mar 7 22:51:14 caverns postfix/master[3560]: warning: process /usr/local/libexec/postfix/smtpd pid 3564 exit status 1 Mar 7 22:51:14 caverns postfix/master[3560]: warning: /usr/local/libexec/postfix/smtpd: bad command startup -- throttling A nudge in the right direction would be appreciated.
