After having my DNS server fail late yesterday, and several times reboot, I find that something is wrong with some permission involving sendmail. Apr 15 01:09:12 sage sendmail[881]: h3F89CTR000881: SYSERR(admin): collect: Cannot write ./dfh3F89CTR000881 (bfcommit, uid=1001, gid=25): Permission denied Apr 15 01:09:12 sage sendmail[881]: h3F89CTR000881: SYSERR(admin): queueup: cannot create queue temp file ./tfh3F89CTR000881, uid=1001: Permission denied Apr 15 09:12:25 sage su: kline to root on /dev/ttyp1 Apr 15 09:26:36 sage sendmail[1960]: h3FGQaHJ001960: SYSERR(kline): collect: Cannot write ./dfh3FGQaHJ001960 (bfcommit, uid=1002, gid=25): Permission denied Apr 15 09:26:36 sage sendmail[1960]: h3FGQaHJ001960: SYSERR(kline): queueup: cannot create queue temp file ./tfh3FGQaHJ001960, uid=1002: Permission denied is what I found is messages. The uid=1001 is, as evident, "admin"; uid=1002, is "kline", and gid=25 is smmsp. Can anybody clue me in on what I need to fix? thanks much, gary PS: I did check at the sendmail src, queue.c, but it didn't give me many ideas. -- Gary Kline kline@thought.org www.thought.org Public service Unix
