I installed it from the ports, but when I try to start any of the programs from the package the result is "Permission denied"! Example: su-2.04# cd /var/qmail/bin su-2.04# whoami root su-2.04# uname -smr FreeBSD 4.1-RELEASE i386 su-2.04# ./qmail-start su: ./qmail-start: Permission denied su-2.04# ls -l qmail-start -rwx------ 1 root qmail 5340 Sep 16 22:07 qmail-start Second example: su-2.04# cd ../configure/ su-2.04# ./hostname su: ./hostname: Permission denied su-2.04# ls -l hostname -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 4052 Sep 16 22:11 hostname The situation is very complicated to me since any of those programs work inside the compilation area. Example: su-2.04# cd /usr/ports/mail/qmail/work/qmail-1.03/ su-2.04# ./hostname myserver.com I thought that maybe the programs are different but they are not! su-2.04# diff hostname /var/qmail/configure/hostname su-2.04# Then I thought that maybe the problem is because of permissions. An started make check but the result from it is: su-2.04# make check ./instcheck I looked in qmail news and I found information for similar problem on linux but there wasn't a solution! Any suggestions? Please excuse my English, it is not my native language.
